Boulder Lights it Up Blue Tie-Dye for Autism Awareness Month

Boulder Lights it Up Blue Tie-Dye for Autism Awareness Month — Behavior Frontiers

Behavior Frontiers’ Boulder office celebrated Autism Awareness Month with a tie-dye event for the local autism community. The kiddos (and our team!) enjoyed the beautiful weather, a few games, and a great memento – a Behavior Frontiers t-shirt that they tie-dyed themselves! The turnout was fantastic, with many of our Boulder clients and their families participating, as well as local families and autism community friends. This was truly a community event thanks to the support the event received from local autism organizations, blogs, and Facebook groups.

Alyssa Simko, Behavior Frontiers’ Boulder Clinical Director, was “all in” on this event. “Who doesn't LOVE colorful things, especially tie-dye??” Simko explains with a smile. “I wanted an activity that everyone could take part in and tie-dye fit the bill. We chose to offer different shades of blue to highlight Autism Awareness Month and to highlight how the Boulder Behavior Frontiers team works together to produce awesome outcomes for our families. The event was a tremendous success -- The sun was shining, kids were playing, families were interacting and our tie-dye shirts came out AMAZING! We truly did Light It Up Blue for Autism Awareness!”

Autism Symbols Explained: The Puzzle Piece, Infinity Sign, and the Shift Toward Inclusion

The symbols we choose to represent autism do two things at once: they shape how the world understands autism, and they show those with autism how the world views them. So if you’ve ever seen that colorful puzzle piece on a bumper sticker or t-shirt, you might already know it’s connected to autism. But there are shifts happening. As our understanding of autism has grown, so has the conversation about which symbols best represent the community.
