Belonging doesn’t happen just because people share a space.It grows when someone feels seen, heard, and valued. This week, pause and ask yourself: - Who felt included because of something I said or did? - Who might still be on the margins—waiting for an invitation, not attention? - What would change if I led with curiosity instead of assumptions? 💬 Conversation Starter (pick one): 1. What helps you feel like you truly belong in a group? 2. What’s one small action that can turn presence into participation? 3. Where do communities unintentionally exclude—without meaning to? Take a moment. Share honestly.Your insight might be exactly what someone else needs today.

Hello Everyone! Hope your day is going well. Please introduce yourself to the community. Would love to get to know everyone. 1. What is your preferred name (what should we call you)? 2. What is your dream job? 3. What is your relationship to autistic adults (i.e., caregiver, educator, physician)?

Thanks for joining this community. Check out some of my posts, which highlight research and discussion topics to help us better support autistic adults and their caregivers. I am open to hearing what you think about any of the topics. What topic resonates with you and why? If autistic adults and caregivers quietly left your church tomorrow… would your leadership notice—or just your attendance numbers?

What brought you here—and what are you hoping to learn or experience in this community?
