DID YOU KNOW?
It is estimated that one in 68 children are now diagnosed with an Autism Spectrum disorder, and yet, this diagnosis remains as misunderstood as ever.
Research demonstrates that autistic individuals not only desire social interaction but may experience loneliness to a greater degree without it, compared to neurotypical individuals.
Social connection is a powerful predictor of long-term physical and mental health. Having meaningful friendships — or lacking them — has an impact on our cardiovascular and immune systems, stress responses, sleep and cognitive health.
YOUR SUPPORT ALLOW FRIENDSHIPS + CONNECTIONS THROUGH EDUCATION AT FLYING STARLINGS!!!

Lets raise a future of children who grow up understanding their beauty and the beauty of eachother. Bravely bringing gifts, talents, new ways of thinking, compassion, understanding and acceptance into the world around them.
