It’s here! Our second Autism Acceptance Month poetry event! We are currently seeking poetry submissions

 

Join us in celebrating Autism Acceptance Month and National Poetry Month in April by having your poetry featured on this page.

 

Poems will be published to a WordPress blog and shared to this page, our twitter and tumblr accounts beginning April first.

 

Parents: if you are submitting on behalf of your child, please be sure to get their permission first. Teachers, if you are submitting student work, please be sure to get permission from both parent and child.

 

This event is open to Autistic people of all ages! No one is too young or too old to participate.

 

Even if you have never written a poem before, you are encouraged to give it a go! Throw the rules out the window and let the words flow.

 

Please send your submissions and all questions to: neurodiversityadvocate@gmail.com

 

Stay tuned for updates and writing ideas in the coming weeks.

 

Thanks and happy writing!
