Disability Awesome: “Profound Autism” Is Hidden From Social Media

By Nathan Young on May 4, 2024

Welcome to Disability Awesome. Each week, this post will feature a person or persons with mental and / or physical disabilities who are doing awesome things! As someone with an disability, I love it when others when disabilities do great things!

The world puts autistic people into two boxes those seen as “different” and those seen as “disordered”.

Let me be perfectly clear and that I do not believe the perceptions. The world holds are useful.

That said…I DO think terms like “profound autism” can be useful in securing the additional support required by folks who fit this category.

People on the spectrum who are MOST vulnerable are the LEAST represented…and that needs to change!
