On Mondays we wear blue. 💙 Will you?

Yes, we’re wearing blue again this Monday, and every Monday during April, for Autism Awareness!

Why?

Because everyone deserves to be accepted, included and supported with dignity. And, at The Wellness Collective, we believe creating awareness is an important step in that direction.

Share to help others understand ASD!

DID YOU KNOW…
💙 Autism occurs on a spectrum; it ranges from highly verbal to non-verbal, and from needing significant support to living independently- no two people with autism are alike!

💙About 1 in 31 children in the U.S. have autism.

💙 Boys are 4x more likely to be diagnosed with autism than girls.

💙 Early diagnosis and intervention can lead to significant improvements in symptoms and outcomes.
