Activities of Interest in the World of Autism
1 CommentAutism Corps: USA
Over at Squidalicious, there is a movement afoot to create an Autism Corps, a federally funded organization to train volunteers to work with autistic children and adults. I’ve just joined up to help get the work going.
The Autism Corps petition describes the proposal in more detail. If you feel so inspired, please read it and add your name to the list.
World Inaugural Seminar on Girls and Women with an Autism Spectrum Disorder: Australia
Sponsored by Asperger Services Australia, this seminar will take place on Friday, August 7 and Saturday, August 8 at The Holiday Inn, Roma Street, Brisbane. The keynote speakers are Professor Tony Attwood and Dr. Michelle Garnett. Among the guest speakers is our very own Camilla Connolly. (Go Camilla, and thanks for the information!)

I’m rooting for you to find the ideal balance between activism in the wider world and the necessary comfort of your home haven.
