Autistic Pride Day, 18th June
The aim of Autistic Pride Day is to raise awareness about what autism actually is, and to help people who aren’t on the spectrum or who don’t know anybody on the spectrum to understand that autism isn’t something that needs to be treated; it’s just something that makes people unique and different. The day isn’t run by charities; it’s actually run by autistic people from around the UK, wanting to raise more awareness about themselves and their way of life. Autism isn’t a disability; it’s just a difference. If you want to get involved in Autistic Pride Day, there are many ways to do that. You can post on social media, change your profile picture to the rainbow infinity symbol, which is the symbol for Autistic Pride, or you can simply just educate yourself and others more.
