Autism Talks

Autism Talks invites you to conversations with experts, tips and fun activities you can do at home. Stay plugged into resources and programs to help you navigate autism.

This month, we interview Kristin King (they/them) who is a co-facilitator for Autism: Education & Equity – A Public Health Discussion and an autistic queer advocate. They work for the Pima County Health Department COVID Schools team and were a co-founder of the Pima County Autism Project. Kristin is a student at Harvard College and will graduate in 2024. The Autism Society of Southern Arizona and the Pima County Health Department are hosting this virtual autism conference to bring attention to resources and knowledge to create more equitable environments, services, and workspaces in Pima County. Conference sessions will be available for viewing Tuesday, June 22 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at no charge to attendees and participants. Click the link to register.
