Many well-meaning people don't know that Autism Speaks does very little to help existing autistic children or adults. We are grateful to @autisticadvocacy.org for going over Autism Speaks's financial record—so you can see exactly why you shouldn't donate to AS. #autism #neurodiversity

Autistic Self Advocacy Network (ASAN)@autisticadvocacy.org

Very little money donated to Autism Speaks goes toward helping autistic people and families. This #AutismAcceptanceMonth, considering supporting groups by and for autistic people! autisticadvocacy.org/considerthef...

Am I imagining things, or has the paltry percentage of funds going to family services actually *decreased*?

You are as clear-headed as any of us can be at this point in time. Also, yes, Autism Speaks is now spending LESS money on autistic and family QoL than before, which means they suck even more than they used to. I didn't think that was possible.

Oh, Autism Speaks is a terrible organization and can go straight to hell.
