What does Autism Acceptance look like? What is the difference between Autism Acceptance and Autism Awareness? How can we each do a better job of listening to other voices in our community? Why is it so important to center autistic voices in policymaking, research, programs and philanthropy? In today's episode of the Autism Empowerment Podcast, we share meaningful conversation around the following areas:

  • What is the difference between Autism Acceptance and Autism Awareness? 
  • Between acceptance and stagnation? 
  • How can we promote health, wellness, and the human needs of each autistic person with respect and dignity?
  • Why is it so important to center autistic voices in policymaking, research, programs and philanthropy?
  • To support Autism Acceptance and Autism Empowerment, where can we go to learn more?
