Mission: We are joining the Disability March to support our disability community. Every day our little family battles anxiety issues and mental disabilities that can make it difficult for us to participate in large (dare we say, “YUGE!”) social gatherings.

I’m marching for the rights of individuals with autism. It is my hope that ALL people will have a safe and prosperous future. I am a young adult with autism. I am a working creative focusing mostly on my writing. http://www.mollysmonsters.com
