DO YOU WANT TO HELP SHAPE RESEARCH ON NEURODIVERGENCE AND SEX EDUCATION? JOIN US! We are the Thriving in Neurodiverse Communities (ThINC) Lab at St. Olaf College, and we need your help! We are currently forming a youth advisory board to help us create effective and affirming sexuality and consentfocused education strategies. If you are: Between the ages of 15-17 Autistic Located in the United States Willing to review materials and participate in group discussions either verbally or via Zoom’s “chat” function approximately 4 times per year

Join our Youth Advisory Board!

We invite adolescents on the autism spectrum to join our virtual Youth Advisory Board!

Our team is conducting research on how we can improve education about consent and healthy romantic relationships for neurodiverse adolescents. We are in the process of forming a Youth Advisory Board to help with this project.

Youth Advisors will meet with our team and one another a few times per year to provide feedback and help direct our research. This is an opportunity to truly partner in the research process.

Here is an information sheet, if you’d like to read more about this Youth Advisory Board program. If you’re interested, the next step is to schedule a video call where we’ll talk to your youth and at least one guardian about the program. You can fill out this brief interest form and we’ll send you some time options.

Coming soon!

More opportunities to participate in research about autism and sexual consent education will be coming soon! Sign up for our email list below to stay informed.
