April is Autism Awareness month, and April 2nd is Autism Awareness day, but we need more than just awareness now. The problem now isn't that people aren't aware of autism, but that they don't accept or understand it.

It’s 2025… can we start masking in hospitals again?

Can we stop insinuating that hospital acquired covid is inevitable or that those who die were going to die anyways?

Let’s call it what it is. A failure of infection control to protect those who put their lives in your hands

This International Day of Persons with Disabilities, we’d like to share Simi’s story with you.

Simi is a Black, Disabled and queer young person. Her journey shows the importance of embracing every part of who you are – and everything that makes you, you, deserves to be celebrated.

“I am not ashamed to be Disabled. I think that my limbs are beautiful in their uniqueness. My disability is a major part of who I am and deliberately ignoring it would mean overlooking a huge part of me. Everything my Disability has caused me to go through has made me stronger.

So when people see me I want them to see me. A girl with Black skin, a dimpled smile, and flappy hands who uses a wheelchair. I don’t want you to see a broken body or a burden on society. Instead, I want you to see the beauty in my bent legs and how my hands hang on the edge of my arms like a waggling flag attached to a pole. And through them, see the history of both Black and Disabled people in my bones and both of those cultures in my heart. See a beautiful and proud Black, Disabled, queer person because that is who I am.”
