Top 4 Ways to Celebrate Autism Acceptance Month
Autism Acceptance Month is here, and we’re excited to celebrate! Since some may be unsure of how to best recognize this month of acceptance, we’ve put together a list of the top 4 ways to celebrate!
Get educated. If you are unfamiliar with autism or looking to dive deeper into it, here are some great educational resources!
Use social media to spread the word. After educating yourself, help educate others by sharing resources on social media! Be sure to follow relevant hashtags, including:
#autismacceptance
#autism
#autismsupport
#neurodiversity
#autismadvocate
#actuallyautistic
#differentnotless
Also, follow accounts managed by those either with autism or those close to the community, including:
@aspergirl
Donate to relevant organizations. One way to show support is by fundraising or donating to organizations that help the autistic community, including:
Organization for Autism Research
Practice inclusivity & celebrate diversity in daily life. It’s important to remember to be inclusive all year-round, not just during Autism Acceptance Month. Take the time to learn about others’ different needs and preferences, and be as accommodating as possible. Always be open to differences, and celebrate them!
