"Since the first of my children was identified autistic more than a decade ago, I've consistently observed a lack of spaces for parents & carers who want to move forward & learn to embrace & thrive as neurodivergent families.

And as an autistic woman, I've experienced an ongoing sense of despair at how little families know about a completely different narrative.
A narrative that is available to them to be able to start along that pathway today.
A narrative derived from an autistic-led perspective, which is neuroaffirming, trauma informed, accessible, intersectional and nurtures all needs in family centred practice."

-Kristy Forbes

 

 

 A principled, gentle space for connection

and ongoing support; for neurodivergent

individuals and their families. 

 

Kristy created iTas as an offering for families seeking a new narrative.

A family story that is empowering, joyous and vibrant. 

It's a space where we all come together as a community of neurodivergent people and/or the families who love, support and are raising neurodivergent (Autistic, ADHD, PDA, and more) children. 

It's a principled, respectful and gentle community where we have the opportunity to learn about neurodivergent identity and culture from an autistic led perspective, based on real lived experience, away from a medical disorder perspective which is predominantly deficit-based. 

iTas is not "just another group" for parents of neurodivergent children. 

 A principled, gentle space for connection
and ongoing support; for neurodivergent
individuals and their families.
