🌟 What Awaits You Inside
🗂️ Three-Tiered Content Library Breakdown

🗓️ Bi-Monthly Q&A Sessions with Maria Davis-Pierre, LMHC
Imagine being able to ask your biggest questions—and get real answers from someone who’s been exactly where you are. As a licensed mental health counselor, autism advocate, and mother to two autistic children, Maria Davis-Pierre brings a uniquely powerful perspective to every live Q&A.
These twice-a-month sessions aren’t just another “expert talk.” They’re safe, supportive conversations where you can show up with your questions, fears, and victories—and be met with real understanding, cultural alignment, and expert guidance.
🎓 Monthly Webinars
Each month, we bring you powerful, culturally grounded trainings led by experts who understand the nuances of autism within the Black community—because you deserve information that reflects your reality, not just the textbook version.
These webinars go beyond surface-level education to offer real-world strategies, lived experience, and trauma-informed approaches that center Black families, Black autistic individuals, and Black cultural values.
🧰 Robust Resource Hub
Whether you’re preparing for an IEP meeting, navigating a new diagnosis, or simply trying to explain autism to a family member who “just doesn’t get it,” the Resource Hub is here to make your advocacy journey smoother, more informed, and rooted in culture.
This isn’t just a list of generic handouts. This is a carefully curated library of tools, templates, and video guides designed specifically for the Black autism experience—so you can spend less time figuring things out and more time focusing on what matters most: supporting your child, yourself, or your clients.
🖤 Monthly Special Sessions
Within the Autism in Black Membership Community, we recognize that healing and growth don’t just happen in silence—they happen in spaces designed with intention, safety, and cultural relevance.
That’s why we offer monthly special sessions that go beyond surface-level support, creating dedicated spaces for deep reflection, authentic connection, and personal healing.
