Autistic Women & Nonbinary Network

The Autistic Women & Nonbinary Network (AWN), originally founded as the Autism Women's Network, is a nonprofit advocacy organization in the autism rights and neurodiversity movements based in Washington, D.C. Its focus is empowerment and support for autistic women and nonbinary transgender people, both groups that have faced historical exclusion by male-dominant discourse on autism. AWN hosts two projects focused on intersectionality in the disability rights community: Divergent, a project focused on disability and feminism, and the Autism, Race, and Ethnicity Committee.
