Autism Awareness Month highlights the need for understanding and acceptance of individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). It emphasizes embracing diversity and promoting inclusivity by recognizing the unique strengths and challenges within the autism community. Creating sensory-friendly environments, tailored communication strategies, and accessible opportunities are essential steps. Dispelling misconceptions and advocating for policy changes and increased funding for research and support services are also crucial. By fostering awareness, acceptance, and support, we can build a more inclusive society where individuals with autism are valued and empowered to thrive. #autismawarenessmonth #autismawarenessmonth💙 #autismacceptance #lightitupblue https://lnkd.in/gNc98bcb

📖: NEW COURSE: Autism Spectrum Disorder: Care Disparities in Underserved Populations Autism Spectrum Disorder encompasses different severity levels of autism and the formerly known Asperger’s Syndrome. Although there have been advances in early diagnosis and treatment alongside an increase in awareness, care disparities still exist in underserved populations. Often, children in these populations can be misdiagnosed or diagnosed later during their school years as opposed to before the age of three, when many early intervention programs are available.

#NationalAutismAwarenessMonth is this month. Autism, or Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects how a person communicates with others and responds to their environment. 1 in 50 children and youth in Canada, are diagnosed with ASD (Source: Public Health Agency of Canada, 2019). People of all genders, ethnicities, and socioeconomic backgrounds, can be diagnosed with ASD. This condition can present in many different ways including: sensory processing, social communication and emotion and behavior regulation. Pleo celebrates all individuals and we recognize each person with autism is unique, and that not everyone with ASD has the same experience. The 🌈autism spectrum refers to this wide variation of strengths and challenges reflected by those living with this condition. Because each person with autism has a different experience, we believe 🤝 supports should match a person’s unique needs and their families’ needs who are supporting them. If you are a parent supporting a child with autism, and you are in need of support and guidance, or just someone to talk to who understands you, we are here for you.

Autism is a spectrum disorder that influences all aspects of identity, resulting in vast differences in individuals even though they share common traits and experiences. To better understand ASD Experiences, this thematic analysis summarized fifteen books by autistic authors and five books relevant to executive function, providing lived experiences, thoughts, and opinions. Understanding ASD Experiences requires a systems perspective that explores the connections between individuals, their relationships to their communities, and how those communities form customs and traditions, resulting in a collective society. Through a system view, understanding ASD Experiences involves identifying how autistic people relate to their environment and can bridge divides found in communities and society.
