Dear John,
2022 has already been a difficult year, and it’s only half over. But in the face of those who want to strip us of our rights and send us backwards, our community has stood strong. We believe that all means all, and when it comes to who can join the fight for justice, nobody should be left behind. We strive to equip our community with the tools needed to realize the full potential of self-advocacy, our community, and our rights as autistic people [[link removed]] , whether that’s through accessible resources [[link removed]] so everyone can understand information about issues that affect their lives, or action alerts [[link removed]] to provide key information and scripts to use when speaking to people in power. It’s our job to quickly and effectively equip our community with the information they need to understand just what’s going on, and that means springing into action when new threats to our rights emerge. Funding for our rapid response comes from our grassroots — people like you.

Help us continue to address the issues that impact our community as they arise! [[link removed]]

Our community makes all of our projects possible. Just in the past few months, we’ve released:
- Our Bodies, Our Rights: What’s Going On at the Supreme Court? [[link removed]]
- A legal memo about Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization and Its implications for reproductive, civil, and disability rights [[link removed]]
- More COVID-19 resources in plain language and Easy Read so everyone can stay safe during the ongoing pandemic [[link removed]]

You can learn more about these rapid response resources in this video featuring ASAN staff!

We’ve been hard at work putting out new resources, but there is so much more to be done. We’re aiming to raise $17,000 by mid-August to help us create even more. Let’s do it together! By giving today, you can support our work in the battles to come and beyond [[link removed]] . The fight to ensure justice for all autistic people doesn’t end here — and we’ll be fighting by your side for as long as we need to. Are you with us?

Sincerely,
The team at ASAN
