December Advocacy: Prepare for the Holiday Season

This November, our focus is on National Family Caregivers Month, holiday planning, and preparation for travel and social events.

This December, access resources surrounding holiday travel, accommodations, and social supports. In addition, our Public Policy resources include an overview of the American Rescue Plan, early intervention planning, and access to our Action Center. Lastly, learn more about our nationwide impact, and how you can get involved this giving season.

Did you know: As you prepare for holiday plans, consider packing a “safety net bag” with calming items, substitutes, and accommodations, and discuss an exit strategy if situations become overwhelming.

Access December Resources

This December, please consider donating to the Autism Society to support our ongoing efforts in the Autism community across the country. From educational resources, information and referral support, and federal advocacy efforts, your gift allows us to continue to connect Autistic individuals and their families to the support they need, when they need it.
