There is a real need to understand autism. Autism is a developmental disorder and not a mental health issue as most people think. People on the spectrum comprehend. It is the ability to communicate that most often poses a challenge. With the right interventions and support system, a group of non-verbal autistic children and adults have co-authored - ‘Talking Fingers’. A book that serves as a revelation into their thoughts, choices, and reasoning. It serves as a powerful reminder that every individual has a voice waiting to be heard, a story waiting to be told. It is just the message we all need – Accept communication in all its diverse forms. #givethemavoice
And, do spread the word. Autism needs communities.

@JoChopra Thanks @JoChopra and @LatikaRoyFound1 for the fabulous work you do. Jo thanks again for sparing your sunday morning.... We loved hearing the Library You!
Have known @JoChopra and @LatikaRoyFound1 for a few years now. Exceptional leader in the deepest sense of the word and an honest human are 2 traits that immediately come to mind about Jo. We at @4PEL_Energy are strong supporters of their work in the disability space!
We're now 2 yrs into the decisive decade. Emissions should be in an unprecedented fall, instead we're seeing the 2nd biggest rise ever recorded. We're wasting invaluable time pretending we can solve this crisis without treating it like a crisis. World leaders are still in denial.
#India’s reality is gut-wrenching – the #coronavirus crisis is back, seemingly worse than before. It is time to act responsibly & accept individual #accountability to stop this surge. Let us pledge to be more humane, reach out and help our brethren in whatever capacity we can.
