Autism is a spectrum, and so is humanity. We are all different, and we all have something to offer the world. People with autism are no exception. They are brilliant, creative, and unique individuals who deserve to be celebrated.

On Autism Awareness Day, let us take a moment to learn more about autism and to celebrate the diversity of the autistic community. Let us also commit to creating a more inclusive world where everyone is accepted and valued, regardless of their differences.
