The Asexual Visibility and Education Network (AVEN) is an organization dedicated to promoting awareness and understanding of asexuality. It provides resources, information, and support for individuals who identify as asexual, as well as for those seeking to learn more about the asexual community. AVEN aims to create a more inclusive society by challenging misconceptions and stereotypes about asexuality. Founded in 2001, AVEN serves as a platform for asexual individuals to connect and share their experiences. The network hosts forums, educational materials, and events to foster community engagement. By advocating for asexual rights and visibility, AVEN contributes to broader discussions about sexual orientation and identity, including topics related to LGBTQ+ rights.
