💨 Abstract

When Tyrone Green's son was diagnosed with autism, Green felt isolated and overwhelmed. In 2023, he co-founded the podcast "AutisHIM" with other Black fathers facing similar challenges. These fathers seek to increase visibility and support for Black dads of autistic children. Despite some societal misconceptions, many autistic individuals lead successful lives. Support groups and public discussions are crucial for these fathers to navigate emotions and advocate for their children.
