Support & Resources for Individuals & Families Living with Pathological Demand Avoidance

Find out what PDA (Pathological Demand Avoidance) is and how to find the right support and resources to help individuals with PDA.

PDA is becoming widely recognized in other countries to be a profile on the autism spectrum thanks to The PDA Society (UK) and PDA emissaries like Harry Thompson, Kristy Forbes and Laura Kerbey. However, US and Canada are still at an early stage in our understanding and PDA research is in its infancy.
