Autisticana is a vibrant, neurodivergent-led nonprofit dedicated to empowering individuals to break down barriers and find their voices through self-advocacy. Founded by Dr. Christine Grimaldi—who was inspired by the legendary journalist Barbara Walters—our organization fosters a supportive community where neurodivergent individuals can express themselves and contribute meaningfully to society. As we have found friends and family for life.
Over the past five years, our talented team has produced more than 600 articles covering a wide range of special interests, including animals, cars, entertainment, and music. Beyond our writing, we champion holistic growth by creating books, art projects, and resources focused on more than writing we also work on ourselves doing yoga, exercise, eating healthy and working on essential independent living skills.
At the heart of Autisticana is a commitment to professional and personal development. Through our weekly editorial process, our team hones their writing and organizational skills. We also take our learning into the community, conducting field trips to local businesses to explore company histories and practice effective communication and interview skills.
We are proud of the work we have accomplished and remain dedicated to achieving even greater milestones, ensuring that every individual we support feels empowered, heard, and valued for their unique contributions. If you would like us to interview you, your special interest or your great community work please reach out to us. We are so excited of who we have become and invite other neurodivergent people to join our team.
