Hey everyone!

This coming week is World Autism Acceptance Week! To raise awareness and acceptance of autism we are bringing you a full week of events, all of which are detailed below. So please reply to this post to be kept informed of what is happening, where, and when.


‘World Autism Acceptance Week 2023’ is from March 27th to April 2nd and cumulates with ‘World Autism Awareness Day’ (WAAD) which is observed every year on April 2nd to educate communities and raise public awareness about autism. Over 50 years have passed since the Autism Society held the first National Autism Awareness month in April of 1970.

Please join us this week for a series of events to help celebrate our neurodiverse community!
