Hi John,
We believe the world could always use more kindness. Especially now,
during National Bullying Prevention Month, the more we empower an
environment of support, understanding and acceptance, the closer we
come to a kinder world for people with autism.
Unfortunately, two-thirds of kids with autism report having been
bullied, which is why we remain relentless in our commitment to
kindness and inclusion. As we continue to make 2020 the year of
kindness, we're inviting you to share a meaningful message of
kindness for a friend or loved one in the autism community: [link removed]
So get those creative wheels turning! Whether you want to cheer on a
friend with autism... celebrate a family member or caregiver's
commitment to the autism community... or simply send positive vibes
out into the world for the millions of people on the spectrum... there
are countless ways to be kind. Simply come up with a kind message and
submit it here: [link removed]
Don't worry, kindness is a two-way street! You can also sign up
to receive your very own personalized message of kindness on November 13, World Kindness Day:

Thank you for helping us make 2020 the year of kindness. Together we
can continue to combat bullying, spread messages of positivity and
work together to create a more understanding world for autistic people
and their families.
With gratitude,
Your friends at Autism Speaks
P.S. This Anti-Bullying Month, we're committed to sharing
stories of members of our community who've overcome bullying or
have done their part to choose kindness, inclusion and acceptance. Get
to know some of them, including Patrick K. ([link removed] , Erin C. ([link removed] , TeeKayy ([link removed] ) and others here: [link removed]
