Today is #WorldAutismDay—an annual reminder that individuals with autism are deserving of equal opportunities to thrive. Our work to build a more inclusive, more accessible world continues.
Autism acceptance means honoring the differences, gifts, and abilities that autistics offer the world. Empowering autistics means centering the voices and ideas of #actuallyautistic individuals in discussions, decisions, research, and policymaking. #AutismAcceptanceMonth
Super excited that the Leaders Around Me and Anatomy of Autism books made it to this great book list for teachers.

It's not just the working from home, the record unemployment or the remote schooling, writes @jessgrose. “The pandemic is also a mental health crisis for mothers that fervently needs to be addressed, or at the very least acknowledged.” nytimes.com/2021/02/04/paren…

We want to recognize the important work of #schoolcounselors across the nation, particularly those who are Cal Lutheran alumni! And we're excited to see what the nearly 200 students currently in our counselor education programs will do! #NSCW21
