April 2024: Autism Awareness Month
Extra•Ordinary People celebrates World Autism Awareness Day
April is Autism Awareness Month!
We may not be able to ‘see’ Autism, or Autism may not be a visible difference, but here at Extra•Ordinary People, we hope that you can feel the love and support we have for our Community with Autism. 💙 Today, on World Autism Awareness Day, Team Extra•Ordinary People recommits ourselves to embracing neurodiversity, spreading understanding, supporting, and celebrating the unique strengths of individuals with Autism.
We extend special appreciation to our beneficiaries, who teach us about the fascinating thought processes of individuals on the autism spectrum. We also recognise the loving parents who nurture them and our team members on the spectrum themselves.
At Extra•Ordinary People, we believe in uncovering unique talents from within the unique individuals we serve. Drawing inspiration from the words of maverick Autism advocate Temple Grandin: “You are different, Not Less.”
Let’s keep helping this world be a more inclusive and accepting one.
