This informative and engaging guidebook provides key adults - parents, school staff and therapists - with the tools needed to support children and young people as they develop a positive understanding of their autistic identity.
The guidebook is designed to accompany the Autism, Identity and Me workbook, building the adult's understanding of autism and autistic identity, expanding upon the themes introduced, and offering a clear and structured programme of sessions to guide the young person through the workbook. Content has been shaped by autistic advisors and contributors, with first-hand experiences woven throughout, alongside examples of 'possible prompts', what to focus on as a lead adult, and a variety of concrete, neurodiversity-affirming strategies.
Having a positive understanding of your autistic identity is an indicator of higher self-esteem and wellbeing as an adult. This guidebook supports the development of this and will be valuable for all adults working with autistic children and young people aged 10+.
For effective use, this guide should be purchased alongside the workbook. Both books can purchased together as a set, Autism, Identity and Me: A Practical Workbook and Professional Guide to Empower Autistic Children and Young People Aged 10+, 9781032261027.
