About the Parenting Autism Experts Libraries
These libraries are all about helping you to help your child — and your family — thrive. Sixty (60) interviews with some of the world’s autism and parenting experts to share the most effective symptom management and parenting strategies for kids with less-obvious (“high-functioning”) autism or Asperger’s, and their parents.
They share insights on the autistic brain and experience, the impact of sensory struggles, effective symptom management, coping with emotional intensity, transitioning after high school, empowering your child for success, behavior, emotions, and regulation, social challenges, life as a teen or adult with autism, empowering your child for success, and so, so much more.
Join thousands of parents improving life for their children with autism, as well as themselves and their families.

“I have a renewed sense of hope for the future and a ton of new tricks in my bag! I could never have found all of these resources on my own in a lifetime, and you gave them to me in a week.”

“I just wanted to reach out to thank you so much for putting together this summit and allowing me to participate as a parent free of charge. I have been finding the sessions so incredibly helpful and encouraging. It’s eye opening and educational to understand the world of autism beyond my everyday experiences with my son, but to hear beyond from experts I wouldn’t ordinarily hear from, helps me help my son. Thank you.”
— Marianne
“This summit showed me that I’m not alone. I have felt so defective because I couldn’t “fix” things for my son! The sessions inspired me to let my son lead. It’s scary, and it will be hard, but this is his life… if I want him to be independent, I need to let him start.”
— Vivian
“This was the type of training is what I have been looking for since my children were diagnosed. It’s so helpful to know about the challenges that others have gone through and the options available out there for me to prepare my kids for the future — in school, work, and social development. Thank you soooooo much for offering this summit!”
