Autistics Speaking Day 2010 was a success that far exceeded our expectations. Many participants, including us, were interested in repeating the event again. So let's consider this the second annual Autistics Speaking Day, with hopefully many to follow. Let's try to make Autistics Speaking Day this year more impressive than its predecessor. Together, autistic people along with our non-autistic allies, can take a stand in support of autism awareness and autism allies and speak out about our experiences.

If you do not want your blog to be pasted onto the ASDay blog, and just want your blog entry to be included in the list of participants (with links, of course), please let us know!
