Autistics Unmasked,

We are Autistics Unmasked (AU), an up and coming non-profit organization working to uplift autistic voices while providing education and resources to the people in our lives so they can better understand us. We are a loud and proud autistic team breaking stigmas and encouraging acceptance. We’re taking a stand against things like ABA and similar therapies, and some of the “big name” organizations that would rather cure autism than help support and create a neurodivergent affirming society for autistic people to live in. Our Co-Founders, sisters Kylia Kennedy and Safiya Yasmeen, saw a need for an organization ran by and for autistic people that would center BIPoC voices. A black founded and ran organization, every member of our team is #Actually Autistic with many of the leadership members being BIPoC. We aim to provide a safe, intersectional space for autistic self advocacy. We want to take control of the conversation around autism and let everyone know that nothing can be done for autistics without autistics.
