My student housing complex recently got professional training on how to be more respectful to their autistic residents, and ever since they got training, staff have been way nicer and more respectful. It sucks when ppl are assholes to autistic people.

That’s amazing! What kind of things are they doing differently to accommodate you and other autistic residents?

They are not judging me as much when I feel sensory overloaded in our common spaces and when I remove myself so I can cope with my sensory issues better. Before they were giving me judgmental looks and they aren’t anymore and I noticed most of the time ask me more clarifying questions when they don’t fully understand what I need when I talk to them which is helpful
