The National Medical Association (NMA) recognizes April as World Autism Awareness Month—a time to celebrate neurodiversity, uplift the voices of individuals with autism, and promote understanding, inclusion, and equity in healthcare and beyond.

But our commitment doesn’t stop when April ends.

Autism awareness must be a year-round priority. We must continue to break down barriers, combat stigma, and ensure that children and adults on the autism spectrum have access to the care, support, and respect they deserve—every single day.

Together, let’s build a more inclusive, informed, and compassionate world. 💙
