Has anyone’s child’s school done something really great or significant for autism awareness. That I may suggest to my sons school, because I feel simply wearing blue isn’t enough to bring it home for kids. I’m going to suggest the small library of books re: autism for teachers and students to read (I saw online). And I was thinking of picking 3 famous/successful autistic people to feature.

Yeah @A MyAutismTeam Member I hear you. sometimes just being aware can stop someone from being bullied. It reminds me of that news story with the rapper 50 cent and the airport janitor with ASD. The rapper posted a story about the janitor being on drugs. It was later revealed that the gentleman was autistic. 50 cent apologized and donated a lot of money to an autism charity.
