April's Autism Awareness Month reminds us of the unique needs and challenges faced by those with autism and their families. When it comes to estate planning, this month underscores the importance of creating a secure future for all family members, especially those who may require long-term support and care. Tailoring an estate plan with specialized trusts can ensure that loved ones with autism receive the necessary resources without jeopardizing their eligibility for government benefits. #srlawgroup #srlaw #lawoffice #blackownedlawfirm #elderlaw #blackowned #georgia #womanowned #estateplanning #supportblackownedbusinesses #estateplanningattorney #estateplanninglawyers #douglasvillega #lastwillandtestament #longtermcare #adoptions #vaimprovedpension #guardianship #conservatorship #medicaidplanning #nationalautismawarenessmonth #autismmonth

Understanding & supporting autism is crucial. Fathers in the lives of their autistic children are irreplaceable yet often undervalued. We must work to recognize this significance. Good fathers, who are compassionate towards their autistic children, reflect a wise civilization.

Today is World Autism Awareness Day. This year, with a focus on creating actionable change, members of the Autistic community, are sharing what people should know, what can they do, or say to be helpful and supportive of Autistic people. Keeping in mind that no two Autistic people are the same, the team at Aspect.org.au have shared a powerful message on this day…. "be patient and kind, don’t judge". What a great starting point for us all to begin to think about how we can do better and more to support the Autistic community! #waud2024 #waud #april2 #autism #neurodiverse #ndissupport #disabilitysupport #helpathandsupport
