Centering and Celebrating Autism Acceptance Month
This month, WithinReach would like to celebrate Autism Acceptance Month! April is Autism Acceptance Month and is a great time to learn more about autism and autistic folks. When celebrating this month or anytime of the year, it is important to listen to autistic educators, support autistic creators, center experiences from autistic folks and donate to organizations that are made for and led by autistic voices. This Reddit thread shows some good rules of thumb when supporting autism organizations and explains why April might be a difficult month for autistic people.
