It may seem like a small win, updating language from "autism awareness" to "acceptance", but it is important. Especially when the language change comes from a government.

@autism101 @actuallyautistic It's a shame the article had to platform Autism Speaks, though, and feature their quote as the last one in the reader's mind. It leaves the impression that Autism Speaks actually accepts Autism.
