One of the alternative ways of understanding the mutual impacts of Autism for our organization has  look at the relations of people with and without Autism from our diverse cultural/social worldviews and different functional/biological situations. Through this biosocial diversity lens a model of anti-ableism education emerged through inclusive community inquiries that compared able oppression to other forms of discrimination and community participant discourse about the mutual impacts of Autism on us all as individuals, groups, societal, and global community members.

The guides that resulted were then trialed in university-based cohorts of mature graduate students in both local Autism parent peer mentoring groups and human development masters program colleagues that were already serving children with Autism and other biosocially diverse community members using anti-bias curriculum. The resulting resources were highly impact-full and meaningful for all concerned.

Our first step is to gather and post hot links to a sound foundation of current, but traditionally only, scientific Autism information that we had previously offered at this website. This kind of strategically-aimed knowledge is what newly diagnosed families always seek first--so we will still help them find it asap when they visit this website. With that eternal and critical need met by other NPO organizations that are maintaining that good mission work, we will be freer to rebuild our website information matrix to provide alternative able-language we need to promote change. New langugage can then give us new option to build bridges between our able-worlds. This more understanding-oriented inquiry will support a social studies approach to the mutual impacts of Autism on us all. Such emergent ways of knowing the broader able-realities of Autism may also advance the cultural cause of building stronger Autism community leaderships that can participate in the wider able advocacy movement. Through such a shared communal base of able diversity information we may proactively promote the launch of more radical able allyship work. This is something our community has always lagged behind on--cutting edge social justice action work and strong biosocial group alliances to gain and sustain the mutually adaptive resources, sustainable service networks, life span program planning, and well-matched best practice training options that we ALL need whenever Autism and other complex atypical able losses are present. We must get past the dual trap of having to "keep it simple" while being treated as "special". This bind has kept us from reaching important adaptable outcomes, particularly when the typically more able beings' complexities and access to well-matched resource are systemically assumed and automatically addressed as the able majority group.

That said, the other side of this radical need meeting mission will be to provide free access to a mutually understandable and very use-able base of practical online resources for those us who are ready to follow this path with the internal and external resources that are already available. The Understanding Autism Organization has the technical capacity and media resources to complete these charitable mission goals in our reach over the next few years.
