Locations not participating are sending the message that autistics aren&#8217;t welcome by not participating.<\/p>\n<p>It is also segregation, because autistics are welcome at a time when it isn&#8217;t open to the public.<\/p>\n<p>What needs to change?<br \/>\nBe sensitive, all of the time. A quieter environment would be helpful for everyone. It may not be necessary to tone down to Sensory Sensitive Sunday levels, but real inclusion would make this event unnecessary.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Culture Barrier: Inclusion April 5, 2022 April 5, 2022 Chuck E.
