The Māori word for #autism is takiwatanga, ‘in their own time and space’ I for one think it’s lovely to describe the condition I can relate to this as I find focusing on one thing at a time works better for me.

If you are 70½ or older and required to take Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) from your IRA? One great option is to consider a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) to benefit the Special Education Foundation. sef-stl.org/news-events/...
