Profound Autism: The Stories We Can’t Afford to Ignore  

Profound autism is often left out of today’s autism conversation, despite representing individuals with the highest support needs.

In this candid and personal presentation, Eileen Lamb explores the lived experience of profound autism through the lens of parenting, advocacy, safety concerns, communication barriers, caregiving, and public perception. Blending personal stories, social commentary, and practical insight, this session challenges simplified narratives while advocating for greater visibility, compassion, services, and support for those too often overlooked in the discussion.
