Online Communities
AVEN
The Asexual Visibility and Education Network or AVEN is a great place to start for general information and forums about asexuality, as it is the largest online asexual community and one of the largest resources. AVEN hosts the world’s largest online asexual community as well as a large archive of resources on asexuality. AVEN strives to create open, honest discussion about asexuality among sexual and asexual people alike.
AUREA
The Aromantic-spectrum Union for Recognition, Education, and Advocacy or AUREA is an organization that shares information, news, and resources on aro identities and communities. Their website acts as a central hub that connects folks to information and resources within the aro community.

Ace Week
Ace Week, formerly Asexual Awareness Week, is an international campaign dedicated to raising awareness and expanding education of asexuality. The week gives all of us an opportunity to celebrate how far our community has come and to dream about the future we will create together.
The Asexual Agenda
The Asexual Agendahas two primary goals:
1. Stimulate and promote asexual blogs. We serve as a community center: a place for readers to discuss with each other, and a portal to other asexual blogs.
2. Strive towards greater understanding, especially in our target audience: people under the ace spectrum who already understand the basics. Sometimes this means our writers share their expertise, but most often it means we offer our varied perspectives. We are built on the idea that beyond asexuality 101, it is impossible to provide only one single authoritative view of everything.
The Asexual Agenda does not attempt to be a 101 resource. If you are learning about asexuality for the first time, you are invited to peruse our list of 101 resources. You are also free to stick around and pick it up as you go along.
Asexuality Archive
The Asexuality Archive is a collection of all things Ace. It hopes to provide a comprehensive and uncensored look into what asexuality is, what it means to us and how it shapes our lives. The intention is to provide information that is approachable and informative, whether or not you’re asexual.
AVENwiki
The AVENwiki has general information about asexuality, a bit of 101, as well as links to AVEN’s posts of the week, media, research.
Asexual Research
The Asexual Research Tumblr has some good places to start, if you're interested in studying asexuality.
If you're serious about asexual research, feel free to contact Aces NYC at acemeetupsnyc@gmail.com for non-public resourses.
TAAAP
The The Ace and Aro Advocacy Project (TAAAP) is an organization dedicated to providing resources on asexuality and aromanticism to the public.
