I seen many neurodiversity movement though they are not for a cure are pro interventions. I don’t know where I lean.
I think there should be more acceptance though I’d consider taking a pill to cure my dyspraxia.
I am pro interventions and medicines but I am anti groups pedaling junk as %100 cures that are harmful in many ways.
The website is actually The Autistic Self Advocacy Network and is at http://www.autisticadvocacy.org. The current link is to an ASA Chapter.
