2X MATCH: DONATE ( [link removed] )
( [link removed] )
Friend,
At Autism Speaks, we started hearing the same thing again and again. Autistic adults were ready for what came next, but the resources weren’t there to meet them.
So, we built them.
This year marks 21 years of showing up where support is missing – especially during major transitions, like the one into adulthood. And in honor of our birthday, every gift is matched 2X to deliver the tools, training, and opportunities autistic adults rely on as school ends and adult life begins. Pitch in now and see your impact DOUBLED to help autistic adults access life-changing support. ( [link removed] )
DOUBLE MY IMPACT ( [link removed] )
For many autistic adults, adulthood brings new questions about work and independence.
Too often, the issue isn’t ability. It’s whether workplaces are prepared to support different ways of learning, communicating, and training. That’s why Autism Speaks developed Workplace Inclusion Now™ (WIN), which helps employers create training methods that work better for autistic employees.
Eric’s story shows what’s possible when those supports are in place.
Diagnosed with autism at age two, Eric has built a growing career in the culinary world in an environment that recognized his strengths and invested in thoughtful training. Clear onboarding. Patient instruction. The time and space to learn the job well.
Through Autism Speaks, Eric found community and opportunities to connect with others in the industry – experiences that helped him grow, collaborate, and take his next steps.
As Eric puts it, “It’s a game changer when your employer takes the time to make you feel comfortable and show you the ropes.”
That’s what inclusion looks like in practice and it’s exactly what your 2X matched gift helps make possible for more autistic adults. Give today, during our birthday month, to DOUBLE your impact. ( [link removed] )
