What is Autism?
People on the autism spectrum are individuals with unique gifts and talents and immense potential. Yes, there are challenges. However, this does not mean they are 'broken', nor does it mean they need to be 'cured' or that their autism needs to be 'fixed'.
Isn't autism just about social awkwardness?
Autism may manifest through various traits:
- Difficulties in understanding social cues
- Challenges with verbal and non-verbal communication
- Highly focused interests or hobbies
- Need for routine and structure
- Sensory sensitivities
- Exceptional abilities in specific areas (e.g., music, math)
