💙 Autism Awareness Month: Honoring Individuals with Profound Autism 💙

As part of Autism Awareness Month, we continue the conversation highlighted on Profound Autism Awareness Day (March 17)—a day recognized across Texas to bring attention to individuals with profound autism and the families who support them.

🧩 What is profound autism?
People with profound autism often experience significant intellectual disabilities, limited communication, and require lifelong support. According to the CDC, approximately 1 in 4 individuals on the autism spectrum meets the criteria for profound autism.

🌟 Why awareness matters
Profound Autism Awareness Day was designated by the Texas Legislature to shine a light on a historically underserved population and to emphasize the importance of accessible services and long‑term support.

📌 Available Supports Through HHSC
• Children’s Autism Program (ABA services for ages 3–15)
• Early Childhood Intervention (birth–age 3, including therapy services)
• Intellectual & Developmental Disabilities (IDD) services for long‑term support
• Medicaid services for eligible children
Early diagnosis and intervention can make a meaningful difference in helping children reach important developmental milestones.

💙 This Autism Awareness Month, we recognize, support, and stand with individuals with profound autism and the families and caregivers who walk alongside them every day.

April is Alcohol Awareness Month 💙

This month is a time to reflect on how alcohol can impact our health, relationships, and overall well-being. Alcohol misuse doesn’t just affect one person—it can impact families and entire communities. Awareness is where change begins.
Whether it’s recognizing the signs, learning about the risks, or checking in on someone you care about, these conversations matter.
Lakes Regional Community Center provides substance use services with Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselors (LCDC) for adults, with teen services available in Rockwall and Greenville. We offer substance use evaluations, as well as individual and group counseling through our Intensive Outpatient (IOP) and Supportive Outpatient (SOP) treatment programs.

📍 Services are available in Bonham, Greenville, Mount Pleasant, Paris, Rockwall, Sherman, Sulphur Springs, and Terrell, with flexible day and evening group options to fit real-life schedules.
Our mission is to provide accessible, supportive care that enhances the lives of individuals and families.

💲 Affordable treatment options are available, including Medicaid, most major insurance plans, private pay, and income-based services for those who qualify.
If you or someone you know is struggling, you’re not alone. Getting help is a strong first step.
☎️ Confidential support is available 24/7 through the SAMHSA National Helpline at 1‑800‑662‑HELP (4357) or samhsa.gov/find-help.

Let’s use this month to start conversations, reduce stigma, and support recovery—together.

💙 World Autism Awareness Day | April 2

Today, we recognize World Autism Awareness Day, a time to increase understanding and show informed support for individuals on the autism spectrum.

One of the simplest ways to be an ally is to learn more about autism by reading credible resources, listening to autistic voices, and engaging with content shared by people with lived experience. Education helps move us beyond awareness toward meaningful acceptance.

Traditionally, blue has been associated with World Autism Awareness Day. However, many members of the neurodiverse community are encouraging a shift, inviting allies to wear red as a symbol of autism acceptance and advocacy, not just awareness.

World Autism Awareness Day reminds us that increased understanding helps us better support our friends, families, and community members with autism. It’s also an opportunity to challenge misconceptions, recognize strengths, and celebrate the many contributions autistic individuals bring to our communities.

Being an ally means continuing to learn, listen, and support autistic people as they are not just today, but all year long.

To learn more, consider exploring resources from autistic‑led organizations such as the Autistic Self Advocacy Network (ASAN) and other neurodiversity‑affirming programs.

Together, we can build communities rooted in kindness, inclusion, and respect.

🌈 Autism Acceptance Month begins today 💙

April is a time to learn, listen, and build understanding around autism and neurodiversity. Throughout this month, we’ll be sharing information, resources, and messages that promote inclusion, acceptance, and meaningful community support.

Autism is part of the diversity of the human experience, and every autistic person has their own strengths, needs, and voice.

Join us this month as we highlight ways we can all learn more and show informed support.

📅 Tomorrow, April 2, is World Autism Awareness Day. We’ll be sharing more ways to learn and stand alongside the neurodiverse community.

We are proud to provide services and supports that help people of all ages live meaningful, connected lives in their communities.
