AUTISM ACCEPTANCE MONTH QUOTE 10

Wednesday, April 17, 2024

“In many ways, diagnosis saved my life. And it’s no secret that disabled people need diagnosis in order to access potentially life-saving resources. But we should be working to undermine a system which withholds and gatekeeps resources from those who need them, as well as undermining the neoliberal-esque ideologies which don’t necessarily consider the health of the population to be much of a priority. I was always going to seek a diagnosis because I know how nesessary and validating it can be, but my goal is a world where that doesn’t need to be the case.” – Ember Green, Misinfo, Diagnosis & Autism Advocacy ft. @YoSamdySam
