Meet Tiffany Hammond: Caregiver Breakout Speaker
What if we stopped asking autistic children to fit into the world—and started listening differently?
That’s the conversation Tiffany Hammond is bringing to Autism Community Network’s 2026 Summit: Toward Neuroharmony: Welcome to the Autism Renaissance.
A New York Times bestselling author, autistic advocate, storyteller, and raising two sons on the spectrum, Tiffany brings lived experience, honesty, humor, and a powerful perspective to conversations about autism, communication, disability, identity, and belonging.
Her debut book, A Day with No Words, became a #1 New York Times bestseller, shining a light on the many ways autistic people communicate, connect, and make their voices heard.
At the Summit, Tiffany will lead our Caregiver Breakout Session: Listening Differently: How to Honor Your Autistic Child’s Brilliance, Autonomy, and Voice.
This is an invitation to challenge assumptions, listen differently, and see our children for who they are—not simply through the labels the world gives them.
Caregivers, you’re going to want to hear this one.
