Autistic Pride Day

It’s Autistic Pride Day! Celebrated every June 18th, today recognises and honours the unique experiences of people with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Many folks with autism often feel alienated or misunderstood. And the challenges they face often arise from societal perceptions and lack of understanding, rather than from the condition itself. Autistic Pride Day aims to shift the narrative towards acceptance and inclusivity, reminding us that autistic people deserve respect and acknowledgment for who they truly are. 

Autistic Pride Day is a dedicated celebration aimed at promoting acceptance and fostering pride among autistic individuals.
The objectives of this commemoration include challenging stereotypes and stigmas, advocating for the rights of autistic individuals, promoting understanding of diverse neurological profiles, and educating society about the importance of inclusion for autistic people.
