Pineapple Support Launches New Group for Performers on Autism Spectrum

Posted On 12 Mar 2024
By : GeneZorkin

Pineapple SupportAdult industry mental health nonprofit Pineapple Support has announced the organization will host a free online support group designed to help performers on the autism spectrum. Sponsored by Pornhub, the six-week “”Sex Work on the Spectrum Support Group” will be led by Pineapple Support therapist Amy Studer and begins tonight, Tuesday March 12, at 9m PST.

“This safe and non-judgmental space offers practical insights and coping strategies tailored to the unique intersection of sex work and neurodivergence,” Studer said. “From establishing healthy boundaries and honing communication skills to building a support system, each week brings a new focus to empower participants.”

Founded by performer Leya Tanit in 2018 after the adult industry suffered a series of tragic losses of performer suffering from depression and other mental illnesses, Pineapple Support is a qualified 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization in the United States. The organization reports it has connected over 14,000 adult performers to mental health services, including free and low-cost therapy, counseling, and emotional support, to date.

“Pornhub has long been a supporter of the work we do, and I’m happy to have them behind such an important conversation,” Tanit said. “Navigating life as a performer on the autism spectrum can present unique challenges that can be difficult to manage alone. Access to stigma-free and sex-positive support for autistic performers is limited, so it’s imperative that we create a safe and inclusive experience to celebrate achievements, foster connections, and set the stage for validation and professional growth.”

Sessions of the six-week “Sex Work on the Spectrum Support Group” will last for around one hour and will take place online each Tuesday at the same time, according to the announcement. For more information and to reserve a spot, click here.
