World Autism Understanding Day (WAUD) is about more than awareness—it’s about action.

According to Aspect - Autism Spectrum Australia:
In conversations with the Autistic community it became apparent that while awareness has grown, genuine understanding and meaningful support are still lacking.

This was further highlighted in recent research where one third (33%) of respondents do not know how to respond if someone told them they are Autistic and 41% said that they would not know how to support people on the autism spectrum*.

No two Autistic people are the same, and autism may not be what you think it is. For this year's campaign "If you learn I am Autistic" here are some suggestions to further increase your understanding.

Watch this video to find out about some things the autistic community want you to know about Autism:

World Autism Understanding Day is more than a date on the calendar; it’s a chance for us to connect, learn, and grow together. By fostering empathy and awareness, we can shine a light on the unique challenges faced by autistic individuals while celebrating their incredible talents. Let’s engage in meaningful conversations and commit to creating spaces where understanding and acceptance thrive. Together, we can make a difference for the neurodivergent autistic community.

April is Autism Acceptance Month, a time for us all to deepen our understanding of the rich tapestry of experiences faced by autistic individuals. This isn’t just about awareness; it’s about empowerment. By embracing and celebrating these unique contributions, we break down barriers and enrich our communities. Let’s join together to elevate autistic voices and foster a culture of acceptance and inclusion. Your support can spark meaningful change—be part of it!
