Can you feel the excitement in the air? We are just one month away from World Autism Awareness Day - the beginning of a month-long celebration of the millions of people on the spectrum and everyone who loves and supports them.
This year, we are excited to be including our “Year of Kindness” initiative into the celebrations: challenging our community to complete one million acts of kindness for people with autism by the end of 2020.
Acts of kindness come in many shapes and sizes! We encourage you to get creative and make kindness your own. Get started today by pledging to commit an act of kindness!
Don’t forget to visit autismspeaks.org/kindness to check out stories, watch videos and learn about autism-friendly events and educational activities taking place throughout the month - all with the aim to increase understanding and acceptance and foster worldwide support for our community.
With kindness,
Lisa Goring Strategic Initiatives and Innovation Officer
