On World Autism Awareness Day, Lydia Shadrach-Razzino writes, "For too long, neurologically diverse employees have felt the need to mask their way of looking at the world. Now, we are discovering that many amongst us are neurodiverse, and therein lies our collective strength. Neurodiverse employees are acknowledged for their role in significantly boosting team creativity and productivity but often don’t feel comfortable to reveal their neurodiversity."

World Autism Awareness Day, observed annually on April 2nd, celebrates the diverse talents and perspectives of individuals on the autism spectrum, while advocating for their understanding, inclusion, and support. It emphasizes breaking down barriers to their full participation in society, recognizing their strengths, and promoting accessibility to education, employment, healthcare, and social inclusion initiatives tailored to their needs. Fostering acceptance involves challenging stereotypes, combating stigma, and promoting empathy and understanding. Ultimately, it calls for a commitment to building a world where everyone, including those with autism, is valued and empowered to flourish, fostering true inclusivity and appreciation for human diversity. #cdsafrica #worldautismday #worldautismawarenessday

A new study shared in JAMA this week shows an increase in autism diagnosis over the past decade, especially among young adults, women and girls, and minority children. This trend underlines the urgent need to ensure diagnostic services and autism supports reach everyone who needs them—particularly adults who may have gone undiagnosed in childhood.   At Autism Speaks, we’re focused on addressing these gaps, from improving access to culturally competent care through our CST program to expanding research on older autistic adults. As we continue to learn from studies like this, it’s clear we need to prioritize bridging gaps in access to care across the lifespan. #healthequitynow https://lnkd.in/eD_WFY9k

Oqea acknowledges that it's an opportunity to foster understanding and acceptance, promoting inclusivity and support for individuals with unique perspectives and challenges. Through education and advocacy, this day encourages dialogue and initiatives aimed at enhancing the lives of those affected by autism and empowering them to thrive in a world that often struggles to comprehend their experiences fully.

For Autism Awareness Month, Guidant Global have a number of speakers and workshops for our team, to ensure we're developing a workplace where we can embrace the skills that autistic workers have to give.  Only 3 in 10 working age autistic disabled people are in employment, compared with around 5 in 10 for all disabled people and 8 in 10 for non-disabled people. Only around 35% of autistic employees are fully open about being autistic, with 1 in 10 not disclosing to anyone at work. We look to support a neurodiverse team and make the most of neurodivergent talent.  We wish everyone affected a constructive Autism Awareness Month. #AutismAwareness #Neurodiversity
