2020 has been a hard year. Our community has fought back against discrimination in COVID-19 treatment [[link removed]] , attacks against our right to home- and community-based services [[link removed]] , and police violence that disproportionately affects Black and brown autistic people [[link removed]] . We’ve worked to make sure all people with disabilities can go to school without fear of restraint or seclusion [[link removed]] , and get the services we need to live freely in our communities [[link removed]] . You’ve been part of all those fights alongside us, and we’re grateful for everything you do to work towards a better world. By donating this holiday season, you can continue to fuel our work in the year to come. Will you join us? [[link removed]]

As we look ahead to the policy battles of 2021, we must use this time to fight for major changes that weren’t within reach before — all while continuing to train the next generation of autistic community leaders at ACI [[link removed]] , and make resources that everyone in our community can access [[link removed]] . We believe that all means all, and when it comes to who can join the fight for justice, nobody should be left behind. Now more than ever, we believe that message is important.
