We are extremely proud of the diversity of our Board of Directors and Advisory Board. Our Executive Director/President is an Aspie as are at least two other members of our Board of Directors. In fact, our bylaws dictate that our ED and twenty-five percent (25%) or more of our Board membership be on the Spectrum.

This insistence on having Aspies in leadership positions can make things difficult at times; but we conscientiously made the decision to not only “talk the talk,” but to also “walk the walk.”

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is now defined by the American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnosis and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) as a single disorder that includes disorders that were previously considered separate:

• Autism
• Asperger’s Syndrome
• Childhood disintegrative disorder
• Pervasive developmental disorder not otherwise specified

Asperger’s Syndrome (AS) is an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) that is characterized by significant difficulties in social interaction and nonverbal communication, often alongside restricted and repetitive patterns of behavior and interests. Aspies, as they commonly refer to themselves, are usually highly intelligent, honest to a fault, and very focused when involved in a task.

AS differs from other Autism Spectrum Disorders by its relative preservation of linguistic and cognitive development. Often physical clumsiness and atypical (peculiar or odd) use of language are also reported.

You may find more information throughout our website, but for additional FAQs, please visit Frequently Asked Questions about ASD.

There are many misconceptions about Autism Spectrum Disorders, especially Asperger’s Syndrome. It is our belief that education of the public and employers is a key component of our organization. Therefore, members of our Board would be happy to be interviewed by students of local high schools and colleges. Please contact us at info@aspergerworks.org.

For instance, we have one-pagers like “About Us” and “Why Asperger Works?”
