#internationalwatersafetyday. Drowning is a leading cause of injury-related death among children, and there's a rising concern about drowning among kids with autism. 50% of children with autism may elope and 71% of the deaths that occur from elopement are due to drowning. autismsocietymd.org/safety/

We were on The Hill today, rallying to protect #Medicaid. Some in the House are eyeing plans to shave billions from the federal budget and some of those cuts could affect Medicaid. To help, visit p2a.co/lRPDZ5C

We are getting a head start on #EarthDay! Did you know it's tomorrow? What are you doing for #EarthDay2025? Some from our Employment & Meaningful Day Program took a #naturewalk with Red Wiggler Community Farm. It was a gorgeous day as attendees took a guided walk with an environmental educator 🍃🍂🌳🌎
