This May our focus is on Mental Health Awareness Month, suicide prevention, Water Safety Month, and resources for summer planning. Our public policy resources provide guidance for the end of the Public Health Emergency ending on May 11th. We also encourage you to continue using our Action Center to support disability policy.

Did you know: Approximately 70 percent of those with Autism have at least one or more co-occurring mental health conditions. Because of the prevalence, collaboration among the Autism community, health advocates, organizations, and policymakers is crucial for providing equitable mental health support.
