About this book

This empowering workbook will help children and young people to develop a positive understanding of their Autistic identity. Highly structured and visual, the workbook is broken down into key sections such as "Interests and focus", "Masking", "Emotions and energy levels" and "My autistic identity statement" to create a personal passport and develop a deeper understanding of what autism means to the young person as an individual. Written with a US readership in mind, this workbook details the diagnostic/discovery process in the US, in addition to relevant organizations and web resources for support around mental health. Content has been shaped by Autistic advisors and contributors, with first-hand experiences of young people woven throughout. The workbook aims to encourage and build:

An understanding of what autism is
An understanding of what autism means to them (their autistic identity)
A positive sense of self
An acknowledgement of things that may be trickier
A pride in being Autistic

Having a positive understanding of your Autistic identity is an indicator of higher self-esteem and wellbeing as an adult. This workbook supports the development of this and will be valuable for Autistic children and young people aged 10+ and the adults working with them. It is designed to be used alongside the accompanying guide for the most effective use, providing further support for the lead adult and a platform for initiating important conversations. For effective use, this workbook should be purchased alongside the guide, Autism, Identity and Me: A Professional and Parent Guide to Support a Positive Understanding of Autistic Identity.
