Just a thought for today -

Autism awareness starts by recognizing that you probably know or are related to someone with autism. Take a look around you. There is probably someone you know or many someones who are on the spectrum. What can you do to assist or accept them? If everyone gave just a little bit of time to a person on the spectrum to assist them or to help them be accepted for who they are life would be that much easier and happier for those on the spectrum and their loved ones.

We're not asking for everything on a silver platter, just a moment a day. Stop a person with ASD from being bullied, don't look at the parent of a child having a meltdown due to being over stimmed like a strange alien from another planet that needs to leave, acknowledge that those on the spectrum have a right to exist and can contribute to society. Volunteer, walk in a fund raiser, etc. Just a moment a day from everyone can make a lifetime of happiness for so many.
