Spring flowers are beautiful, but for many people they also bring seasonal allergies. If you’re experiencing sneezing, congestion, itchy eyes, or a runny nose, pollen may be the cause.
Simple steps can help reduce allergy symptoms this season:
• Keep windows closed during high pollen days
• Shower and change clothes after spending time outdoors
• Use over-the-counter allergy medications if recommended
• Talk with your healthcare provider if symptoms continue
Managing spring allergies early can help you stay comfortable and enjoy the warmer weather. If symptoms are affecting your daily routine, your local care team can help you find relief.

Autism Acceptance Month is an opportunity to increase understanding, promote inclusion, and support individuals living with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Autism is a developmental condition that affects how people communicate, interact, and experience the world — and every individual on the spectrum has unique strengths and needs.
By learning more about autism and embracing neurodiversity, we can help build communities where individuals with autism feel supported, valued, and empowered to thrive.
Together, we can create a more inclusive and understanding community for individuals and families affected by autism. 💙
