Autism acceptance means honoring the differences, gifts, and abilities that autistics offer the world. Empowering autistics means centering the voices and ideas of #actuallyautistic individuals in discussions, decisions, research, and policymaking. #AutismAcceptanceMonth

@EscobedoPavel @CLU_GSOE My pleasure. Honestly the meeting today reminded me how much I love supporting and working with doctoral students. Thanks for sparking the idea to make our program a better place for men of color.

If you allow me to communicate with you the way I feel most comfortable, I will communicate with you far more. You will actually be able to get to know me. #actuallyautistic #accessibility #aac
