Different, Not Less!

Our team is very diverse with the causes we support. If you have had a chance to speak with me over the last couple years you may have heard me mention my sissy, C, (sister, sister in law, etc). C is a special individual who just happens to be diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
People who have been given this diagnosis can behave in a multitude of ways. Most often, they will show problems with social communication and interaction, and restricted or repetitive behaviors or interests. People with ASD may also have different ways of learning, moving, or paying attention.
While yes they are different, they are by no means less! C has a personality like no other! She can express her emotions in a way that may seem foreign but to us it is perfectly normal. Her use of the English language as you and I use is vast however she uses in her own form of slang. It may come with a hand gesture or sign, it may come with a sound, but either way she communicates with us while a smile on her face.
Today I invite you to learn a bit more about those who have been diagnosed and how we as a larger population can make those “different” than us feel heard, respected and loved in a world that can sometimes be very frustrating to them.
