The cool breeze in the air this week, and the mix of school supplies and Halloween decorations in the stores, are all clear reminders that summer is winding down and the transition back to school is just around the corner! 📚🚌
& like with most transitions, changes and shifts comes mixed emotions. Sadness for summer to end, excitement for a new routine, and anxiety about what the next school year will bring. We hope these tips help your transition back to school go a little lighter and smoother 🩷
We can’t wait to hear how everyone’s first days back go next week!

🎨CommYOUnity Connections: Confident Creators🎨
Next week, Teresa will be wrapping up our very first Confident Creators Art Therapy Group with a wonderful group of young girls! This 8-week series was all about building confidence, learning from mistakes and exploring perfectionism - all while supporting each other in a safe, and creative space🩷
It’s been a joy for Teresa to witness their growth, and while it’s bittersweet to see this group come to an end, we are excited to be planning the next!
✨Stay tuned for details on our next Confident Creators group!
If this sounds like a good fit for your child (any gender), feel free to reach out- we’d love to connect!

It’s about more than rainbows and parades, more than simply saying ‘love is love’. It’s about advocacy, justice, acceptance and equality. It’s about building a world where everyone belongs, where everyone feels SAFE to express who they are. To our LGBTQIA+ community - you are safe here🩷🌈

Here at CommYOUnity we support and value all neurotypes. We are passionate about spreading awareness and acceptance regarding neurodiversity by providing education and dispelling myths.

Today is Autism Awareness Day. Unfortunately, Autism is an extremely misunderstood diagnosis and we feel that if we can change even one person’s perspective, it can make a difference. 

An important part of autism awareness day is hearing the voices of autistic people and their family members. When asking them what they wish people knew about autism, some common themes emerged:

♾️Invisibility: Autism can be invisible for many. Unless you know a persons internal experiences, you may never know they are autistic.
♾️Empathy: Autistic people DO have empathy, they may just have a harder time expressing it, showing it, or picking up on the way subtle cues of another person’s emotions. New research is actually suggesting that autistic people may have MORE empathy.
♾️Judgement: Challenges that autistic people experience are NOT a result of “bad parenting”. The way a child is behaving is not always a reflection of the way they are being parented. Consider this perspective when seeing children struggle.
♾️Environment: Autistic people may experience parts of the world in a different way. It does not mean it is the wrong way. It means the environment is not made for their neuro-type. Not everyone “fits the box”.
