Autistic Expertise Forum in New Orleans

[Morton, Hannah Elaine]

Dear CANVAS, 

The Autism Special Interest Group within the ABCT professional organization is hosting an Autistic Expertise Forum as part of our pre-conference meeting in New Orleans on Thursday, November 20th, 2025. This free tabling event is for autistic people to share their work, expertise, special interests, etc. 

We are looking for autistic community members of any age in the New Orleans area who might be interested in presenting at the forum. We are working hard to have an inclusive and sensory-friendly event; direct interaction and speaking are optional, and support people are welcome. Please see the attached flyers for more information about the forum and our pre-conference event.

To express interest, please fill out this brief form: LINK

You can also nominate non-autistic people and organizations who are making a significant contribution to the autism field in the greater New Orleans area, though space is limited (up to 25% of presenters).

Please email asd...@gmail.com with any questions. We look forward to hearing from you! 

Thank you,

Hannah Morton

On behalf of the Autism SIG
