Asset-Framing

Is this applicable to Autism. YES!!

"Asset-Framing" is a cognitive framework developed by Trabian Shorters.

According to Shorters, Asset-Framing involves three key elements:

1. Shifting the focus from problems to solutions: Instead of focusing on what's wrong or broken, Asset-Framing encourages individuals/communities to focus on their strengths and assets and how they can use them to address their challenges.
2. Highlighting the value of lived experiences: Asset-Framing recognizes that individuals and communities have unique lived experiences that shape their perspectives and abilities. By valuing and leveraging these experiences, people can better understand their strengths and use them to achieve their goals.
3. Emphasizing the power of community: Asset-Framing acknowledges that individuals are interconnected and that their strengths are often amplified when they work together in supportive communities.

Essentially. Asset-Framing is a positive and empowering way of thinking about individuals and communities that can help to promote resilience, self-determination, and collective action.
