Dear Hcis,
With Giving Tuesday less than a week away, I want to spotlight why our Vaccine Education Initiative is so important for the Autism community...and why I’m asking you to make your gift today.
As I shared earlier this fall, people with Autism often have a higher chance of facing health issues that can be prevented. Still, Autistic individuals experience significant barriers to accessible healthcare. One particular area of concern is vaccination.
With the Autism Society's Vaccine Education Initiative (VEI), we are rewriting the vaccine experience nationwide - creating a path to increased health for Autistic individuals and others with disabilities and complex support needs.
In the first two years of this groundbreaking program, we:
- Celebrated a 99% success rate at piloting vaccine clinics
- Delivered over 225 community education programs
- Trained over 3,700 healthcare professionals
- Created 200+ new local, regional, and national partnerships
- Planned and supported 157 accessible vaccine clinics across 23 states
...and much more! (See our incredible results.)
Hcis, your contribution will help sustain and expand the VEI and all our vital programs and services. Will you please make your gift as we look ahead to #GivingTuesday? |
