Vote ASAN to receive Cafe Press's Autism Awareness Month Donations!

It’s that time of year again- the time of year where we gear up for April, aka “Autism Awareness Month”. As in the past couple of years, Cafe Press has people vote on which charities/organizations they will donate to. They started doing this poll as Autistics and our allies protested their previous approach- to just donate to Autism Speaks. 

ASAN (the Autistic Self Advocacy Network) is the only organization on the poll run by and for Autistics. The others range from “meh” to espousing bad science, eugenic ideas, or both. 

POLL ENDS ON MARCH 8TH. THIS IS URGENT.

You may vote for one Organization to receive half of the donations. The organization with the most votes and the runner up will each receive half. Donations come from 10% of the sales of items using a specified tag. 

NOTHING ABOUT US WITHOUT US!!!
