FRIENDS OF AUTISTIC PEOPLE
Founded in 1997, Friends of Autistic People is a non-profit, parents’ support group dedicated to bringing about an environment where adult children with autism can be assured of receiving high-quality care and assistance after they turn 21. FAP is the only charitable organization in Connecticut that advocates appropriate services for adults on the entire spectrum of autism.
Hello Friends of Autistic People!
My name is Ashley, and I’m reaching out on behalf of the series Love On The Spectrum, an award-winning Netflix documentary series about dating and relationships featuring people on the autism spectrum. We are currently casting for a potential new season and would love to connect to see if you might be willing to spread the word within your community. We hope to give as many people the opportunity to write in to us as possible.
Love On The Spectrum follows adults on the autism spectrum as they navigate the world of relationships and dating. Our aim with the series is to send a positive message, that people on the spectrum can and do find love while helping educate the audience about ASD by breaking down some of the myths, misconceptions, and stereotypical views, and celebrating differences. It’s important to us to tell the diverse stories of real people, in their own voices.
Specifically, we’re looking to connect with individuals 18+ on the autism spectrum who are single, interested in dating, and might be interested in speaking to us about possible participation in the series.
We’d be incredibly grateful if you could help us get the word out, the more people we can speak with the better! I’ve attached a flyer with all the details about how to get in touch with us. If you have any questions or would like further information, please don’t hesitate to ask.
(Also, just to note – since we are speaking to many potential participants, any contact we have with people in this ‘casting’ phase is very informal, and in no way a commitment for them to be on the series.)
Thank you for your time and consideration!
All my best,
Ashley Morgan
