Cross-party political support on #Neurodiversity has been a core part of our mission, so I was thrilled to talk to the Labour Peer, Baroness Anderson of Stoke-on-Trent about #AutismAcceptance. Her strong message included that “Autistic people are a valued, incredibly important part of our community. The more we can talk about it, the more conversations we can have, the more that everyone feels part of an inclusive society and build for the community that we need to have now.” There have been some truly negative developments recently – disabled children removed from school photos, disabled women referred to as ‘mangled’ and ‘grim’. These things are truly not acceptable and show that, while progress has been made, we do not yet have an accepting, inclusive society. But every one of you can help – share my post and those from Neurodiversity in Business (NiB) - the Neurodiversity Charity as well as other Autistic advocates. And start a conversation with your network, your family and friends about the importance of acceptance. ⁉ PS: What conversations have you had this #AutismAcceptanceWeek? What have you learned or what messages are you sharing with the world? #AutismAwareness #AAW24 #AutismAcceptanceWeek #Neurodiversity #NeurodiversityInBusiness #NeuroInclusionNow #ChangeTheWorld Video description: Dan Harris talks with Baroness Anderson in Parliament about Autism Acceptance Day and the importance of starting conversations to help build an inclusive society.
I assume that you've seen this latest report, Dan. There was also a discussion on BBC Newsnight on April 04, 2024, available on BBC iPlayer and from 17'50" in. Have a great weekend and my best to #TheJoshieMan and the family as ever. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-68725973
It is great that there is bi-parisan support for this - we need this to go global Dan Harris FRSA
Amazing glad to see it and you are always the best qnd a legend never forget that okay
This is great 👍🏻 well done Dan Harris FRSA for all the hard work and awareness you are raising 👏
Listening to the autistic community and learning from their lived experience has been so insightful. Just the language used alone helps identify those who care enough to learn and accept the preferences of many autistic adults.
Amazing glad to see it and you are always a legend Dan
Great work!👏👏
Stronger together 👏🥰
