Of Autism Acceptance Day and Autism Acceptance Month

To all who read this blog...


I am writing to ask you to wear RED and encourage your family to do so too, not blue, on April 2nd to show your support for me and other Autistics!  Autistics, our family members, our friends, and other allies are going to #WalkInRed that day. 

The #WalkInRed campaign is an effort by #ActuallyAutistic individuals to rally support for #AutismAcceptance.  This campaign thrives on Facebook and Twitter, it is in conjunction with #BoycottAutismSpeaks.  To find out more about it please click here:

Thank you for not Lighting It Up Blue with Autism Speaks, but instead standing in support of Autistic people and wearing RED.

April is Autism Acceptance Month.  Here is a great video that will describe more about Autism Acceptance Month, etc.  Ask an Autistic - Why Acceptance? Autism Acceptance Month  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5XhbHIgm438
