April is Autism Acceptance Month

April is a month to celebrate the strengths, perspectives, and achievements of individuals on the autism spectrum. We also bring awareness to barriers that need to be broken down, foster opportunities to increase inclusivity, and dispel myths and misconceptions.

This month, Birch Family Services celebrates the progress made, while recognizing that building a more inclusive world is work that continues every day.

Here are a few ways you can take part this month:
• Share your support on social media!
• Join a workshop through Birch’s Training Institute to gain practical knowledge and skills that strengthen inclusion in everyday settings at home, work, and the community0
• Register for Birch’s Annual 5K Run & Walk and stand with our community in a visible show of support
• Start conversations. Tell friends, colleagues, and family about Birch’s work and help expand our reach Every voice, every action, and every conversation helps move our mission forward.

Your advocacy matters and makes a lasting difference in the day-to-day lives of the individuals Birch Family Services supports every day!
