Healthcare and Medical News: December supports for COVID-19

Our Promise During COVID-19: The Autism Society of America promises to remain committed to improving the lives of all affected by autism across the spectrum and throughout the lifespan, and will focus on providing information, resources, and advocacy efforts to address these urgent needs.

As we endure the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Autism Society continues to provide urgent COVID-19 resources, as well as holiday support. Our December toolkit also includes relevant policy information for the upcoming legislative goals and transition.

This holiday season will be different due to social distancing guidelines, which may leave some feeling lonely or anxious. These resources are here to help you find ways to celebrate safely while still connecting with loved ones.

Stay safe, and stay hopeful this holiday season, we are here for you.

As with any medical decision, the Autism Society of America encourages parents, caregivers and autistic individuals to discuss the COVID-19 vaccines with their physicians.
