Affect Autism

Affect Autism, a writing-focused Patreon launched in October 2018, offers valuable resources for parents and caregivers seeking to understand and support autistic children. This platform uses the DIR/Floortime model to guide its educational content, focusing on fostering respectful communication and abstract thinking through play. The creator delivers informative blog posts, audio and video podcasts, and downloadable PDFs, all aimed at building stronger connections and facilitating development. With a thriving community of 228 total members (77 paid), Affect Autism has generated an estimated $384 in monthly earnings, demonstrating consistent engagement and the valuable impact of their approach. Unlike many autism resources, Affect Autism emphasizes playful interaction and personalized connection, rather than solely focusing on behavioral interventions. This unique focus, along with a diverse content delivery, makes it a valuable resource for those seeking a more holistic and relationship-focused approach to supporting neurodivergent children.
