Who is the Autistic Burnout Network?
The Autistic Burnout Network is a cohort of Neurodivergent professionals and educators who are all committed to increasing the understanding of burnout, educating others and providing meaningful and compassionate care to those needing support.
Our aim is to create a ‘go to’ place for professionals and individuals to come to find training and support for burnout. With the varied experiences of the identifying professionals involved in this network, we hope to create a high standard of best practice when it comes to supporting our community members.
