For organisations who support families

The Spectrum Path is a free, non-profit, parent-only online community for parents of autistic children. It is not therapy, not clinical care, and not a replacement for the local services you provide — it's the peer-to-peer piece: a private, moderated space where a parent can talk with other parents on a path like theirs, anonymously if they prefer.

What we are — and are not

  • 100% non-profit and free forever — no ads, no data selling, no public child profiles.
  • Parent-only membership — every member is a parent or primary caregiver of an autistic child.
  • Founder-moderated, with a written crisis boundary — members in crisis are always pointed to professional services first. We make no clinical claims of any kind.
  • We do not request referral data. We will never ask you for family information, and listing us does not imply you endorse every view shared by parents. Families come to us directly, on their own terms.

The only asks — pick any, or none

  • Add thespectrumpath.com to your resource list.
  • Include the 75-word blurb below in a newsletter.
  • Keep a few of our printed cards in your waiting area — email us and we'll send the print-ready file.
  • Invite us to a 15-minute, no-slides information call.

75-word newsletter blurb

The Spectrum Path (thespectrumpath.com) is a free, non-profit online community for parents of autistic children. Parents share a short picture of their child's path and are privately connected with families whose daily life looks like theirs — anonymously if they prefer. No ads, no data selling, no clinical claims: just moderated, parent-only peer support, from new diagnosis through adulthood. Membership is open now, and seats open within two days.

Contact: hello@thespectrumpath.com — a person reads every message.
