Top 25 Autism Spectrum Blogs
The web has become a critical part of life for those impacted by autism, including many, many parents. It's not only an invaluable tool for quickly distributing information, but it's also an incredible source of community for those raising kids on the spectrum. Blogs, in particular, have provided those coping with autism a way to share their individual experiences and see that they are far from alone in their challenges and their triumphs. Read More ↓
There are hundreds and hundreds (if not thousands!) of great autism spectrum blogs out there, representing a wide diversity of perspectives, but together they demonstrate one thing: a commitment to bringing ASD issues out into the open, making it less and less possible to ignore families who live with them every day.
Choosing just 25 blogs to highlight here was no small feat; those selected are Autism Speaks staff favorites, but this is by no means an exhaustive list. We easily could have doubled or tripled the number here with the addition of many other beloved voices we return to again and again. If there are others you would add, we hope you'll share them with us. In the meantime, thank you for joining us and Babble in celebrating those listed here.

Autism in a Word | Jeneil Palmer Russell
Autism in a Word is filled with thoughtful, soul-searching reflections from a mother of two little girls: Rhema, 6, who has autism, a seizure disorder, and a feeding disorder, and Hope, 3. Her posts present her everyday life with her daughters as a never-ending source of insight. Whether she’s recounting a frustrating attempt to get Rhema to eat with a spoon instead of her hands or documenting the moment when Hope recognizes another child’s rejection of her sister, we can’t stop reading.

I was wondering if you had any intslig of autism-friendly places of worship in Forsyth County. I noticed the Guilford County chapter has one listed.Also, I was wondering if a list of information links could be started? I have a few to share and I would love to hear from other parents.Do you have a Facebook or Twitter account?Is there a way to sign up on here to volunteer or how does that work? I have two children on the spectrum.
