Something about us

This was made out of short videos and texts from many autistic contributors. It was made to counteract the negative anti-autism message from Autism Speaks, and was commissioned from Autreach (with support from ASAN) by TreeHouse, a British autism-education charity. To find out more, visit www.autreach.org.uk It is fine to show it whole, use it whole, copy it and distribute it whole. But if anyone wants to just use a part of it they should ask the original creator of that part for permission (each contributor can be contacted via a URL, in the credits at the end). Hopefully, the complete short movies submitted will also be uploaded in their own right - they are all on the DVD of this, under the heading About Us.

I think it's a great idea and I hope that it works out for you. I agree with you that we need something to counteract all the negativity that people get from Autism Speaks. If you're looking for stories or articles at any time, I'd be happy to submit stories of my experience.

This video was commissioned from Autreach by TreeHouse. I just quoted the text that was underneath the video. Sorry I didn't make that clear.
I thought it was a beautiful video and wanted to post it.

That's awesome, thanks so much for sharing this!
