Have you seen this? A man diagnosed with autism passed the bar exam!

I saw this over the weekend and have been smiling ever since!  A man diagnosed with autism graduated from law school and passed the bar exam on his first try.  This is huge!  This can open up more opportunities for other adults with special needs to attend university.
Check out the video from NBC San Diego Channel 7.

I'm loving Sesame Street's "See Amazing" campaign

I am loving Sesame Street's new "See Amazing" campaign.  First check out the cute song involving familiar Sesame Street characters and children of all abilities.

Find more about autism awareness and general disability awareness at http://autism.sesamestreet.org/.

 There is a digital book with the new character Julia who has autism.  Elmo teaches Abby how to be a good friend to Julia.

Find the book at http://autism.sesamestreet.org/storybook-we-are-amazing/.

There are also some digital Routine Cards to teach kids the steps to every day activities like brushing teeth.  You'll find more videos about children with autism, their friends, and families.  The more education and awareness we create, the better the world will be for all our kids.  Thanks Sesame Street!
