Hello,

I'm a proud father of a son who is ready to tell the world about autism and himself. In preparation for spreading awareness and celebrating neurodiversity on April 2nd my son wanted to share with his 2nd grade class and made a video to do so. I wanted to introduce him and share it with you here.



We're so excited as a family to share our experience and to have seen the outpouring of love from everyone we share with. Please celebrate with us!

Thanks,
Brandon

Best wishes to you and your family! It's very brave and selfless of your son to want to tell others about ASD and increase understanding. God bless!

Good for him--and for you for supporting him! My son is in third grade, and your boy really speaks for him--and my younger self.
