Hello, my name is Andrea Fanta, and I am a PhD candidate in the Department of Human Development and Family Studies (HDFS) at the University of Illinois.

I am currently embarking on a research project focused on autistic identity development. My goal is to understand the practices parents use to support autistic identity during middle childhood, which will ultimately help create awareness and educational resources for parents.

I would greatly appreciate your assistance with participant outreach. Thank you in advance for your support!
