@BradleyRHaywood Today's smile brought to us all from Jake and Brad. And a special thanks to Burt for welcoming Jake to share his sofa and toys. Smiles and tail wags.

@BradleyRHaywood @ineedazannax Congratulations! 👏🏼

[LRIDD @LRIDD1]

@RTDFrankGreen Congratulations! Well deserved.

[LRIDD @LRIDD1]

Thank YOU @JenniferBoysko for your hard work.

[Senator Jennifer Boysko @JenniferBoysko]

So pleased to have my two very important criminal justice reform bills protecting our autistic community members SB 443 and SB 453! @TheArcofVA @LRIDD1 @JusticeFwdVa and other stakeholders, thank you for your work!

[LRIDD @LRIDD1]

@FreeRangeKids @NYCGuitarSchool I very much want to hear this!! 🎶😊🎶

[LRIDD @LRIDD1]

This was a huge accomplishment in 2021. Let’s do more great work together in 2022! #SB1315 and #HB2047.

[Justice Forward VA @JusticeFwdVa]

Every bit of relevant info should be allowed at trial, yet those accused of crimes in VA were prohibited from submitting evidence of mental illness due to 1985 VA Supreme Crt decision. @BarbaraFavola @JennMcClellanVA @JeffMBourne’s HB2047/SB1383 changed that. Justice forward! 10/

Nick is so helpful and humble. I am always in awe of his knowledge, and his talents. His book is a must read for anyone interested in autism and the criminal justice system. #AutismIsNotACrime #DecriminalizeAutism

.@LRIDD1 check out our discussion with Nick Dubin!

A group gets very little press & is doing important work is @LRIDD1: Legal Reform for the Intellectually & Developmentally Disabled. It tries to make the justice system consider whether a person even understood their "crime."

@alixhawley @aneeman 😂🤦‍♀️👩‍💻🧑🏽‍💻🧑🏻‍💻👩🏾‍💻 I grew up loving the library and took my children often. I guess there’s just so much available on the internet. But oh, the smell of a library and the lovely hush of quiet.

This post and thread of comments are SO needed. We need each other when going through tough life stuff. Please check out the amazing resources @AnneMossRogers offers. Each of you are amazing.

[AnneMoss Rogers @AnneMossRogers]

Early on in my grief journey, this is how I felt, too. You are taking the steps to heal emotionally.

@val10044228 @TheUpliftCo @EdgeofSports @shayforthebay @ENNightingale Absolutely! We don’t have to be wealthy to take care of ourselves. It isn’t all about manicures and bubble baths. Sometimes self care is asking others to help us. That can be hard for us women! 🤦‍♀️

[LRIDD @LRIDD1]

Tonight at 5 PT/8 ET join the conversation about real self-care. Spoiler alert…it’s going to be really great! 😉

[The Uplift @UpliftMentors]

Please join us tonight at 5pm PT / 8pm ET for a great conversation where women leaders across US share tips on what ‘real’ self care is! ✨

@amberspeaksup For sure!

[LRIDD @LRIDD1]

@smol_dumpling Your information whereas likely well intended is inaccurate. This happened over a decade ago. The book is written to help prevent other autistic people from the many ways they can unknowingly get into legal trouble, underage porn being just one way.

July 1, 2021 @GovernorVA Ralph Northam signed SB1315 patroned by @JennMcClellanVA and HB2047 patroned by @JeffMBourne into law. We need these laws in every state to ensure a #FairFightLaw for people with developmental disabilities such as autism. #DecriminalizeAutism #cjreform
