No Government Registry for Autists! We condemn the new “disease registry” in the strongest terms. The potential for abuse is too high - don’t make our children pay the price!

According to the CDC, 30 out of every 31 kids is Allistic. Together we can fight Allistic Disorder Syndrome! 🎻 This has been a PSA from your friends at Autism Kids. #Autism #NeurodiversityPride

For all my fellow advocates who are also caregivers, I found this amazing book about a child who learns about advocacy by watching her mother march in protests. The message is incredible - I got chills reading it - and the illustrations are powerful. We highly recommend this book!

Fight ableism and sexism in the toy industry! Not all children are Allistic or otherwise not developmentally delayed. That ableism compounded by the sexism and gender-normative distribution, makes toy shopping a perilous endeavor. All Play is Valid - Let Them Play!

Autism is one of the many forms of Neurodivergence and a natural variation of the endless Neurotypes that exist. Neurodiversity is Biodiversity - natural, unique and vital. #Neurodiversity

Disability rights shouldn’t be political. Disabled children - like my son - deserve the same fundamental rights as everyone else. Yet, over and over again, politicians make disability rights about party, instead of people. Disability rights are human rights - guarantee them for all!

Instead of chasing a debunked vaccine theory, these tax dollars should be used to better the lives of Autistic individuals through better supports, inclusive environments and neuroaffirming education. Magic doesn’t exist and there’s no place for fantasy in science.

Bc of lack of compliance with DEI executive orders, Charlotte’s public schools have lost $5 mil in funding. CMS can no longer afford IEP supports for the Autistic kids we serve or provide free meals.
