#DYK Autistic people report increased homosexuality, bisexuality & asexuality vs neurotypical people? And trans & gender diverse folx are 3-6 times as likely to be autistic than cisgender folx? So what can we do to accommodate? #AutismAcceptanceMonth #CelebrateTheSpectrum

#DYK current autism therapies are based in Western values & practices & lack cultural sensitivity? This results in Indigenous communities facing extra barriers accessing appropriate & consistent care. So what can we do to accommodate? #AutismAcceptanceMonth #CelebrateTheSpectrum

Nothing About Us Without Us! Autistic people need to be involved whenever autism is discussed, and this extends to autism research. Focusing on prioritizing autistic voices in research is pivotal towards greater autism acceptance! #AutismAcceptanceMonth #CelebrateTheSpectrum

Medical visits can be overwhelming for anyone! For Autistic individuals, it can be a very challenging experience, filled with confusion & sensory overload. Understanding the needs & experiences can create a more accessible & inclusive healthcare system. #AutismAcceptanceMonth

Acceptance is understanding that one size does not fit all. Autistic people have unique strengths and challenges, and embracing autism acceptance in therapy means adapting therapeutic approaches by accommodating autistic needs! #AutismAcceptanceMonth #CelebrateTheSpectrum

Autistic people contribute a lot to the workplace! Yet, some environments can create barriers for individual sensory & communication needs. Creating a culture that respects & values a diversity of brain styles can make a difference! #AutismAcceptanceMonth #CelebrateTheSpectrum
