Comics for Education and Advocacy
Everything Geek Club Books does, even our name, is focused on encouraging pride in our diversity and celebrating our uniqueness. We want the autistic community to be represented, feel empowered, and know that their voices matter!
It’s vitally important that the neurodiverse community see a positive reflection of themselves in literature and pop culture. Our autistic-created comics help children and adults gain a better understanding of the autism experience.
Comics for Public Awareness and Acceptance
“Hear Our Spectrum of Voices” comic highlights quotes from autistic advocates. It will help you have a deeper understanding about the autism experience.
“A Day in the Life” comic features interviews with #ActuallyAutistic adults in the real world who have found success in their own way.
By this point, everyone’s aware of autism. It exists! We get it! It’s time to embrace autism acceptance. And it’s time to start listening to autistic people who have their own voices and know what they need.
Need help explaining or understanding autism? Rebecca Burgess created this comic to help you understand the spectrum in a more accurate way.
