Celebrating 45 Years of Research That Makes A Difference: Submit Your Photo and Help Tell ARI’s Story in a Snapshot
As members of the autism community many of you have come to understand the impact of sharing stories and learning from the journeys of others who are also navigating life with autism on a daily basis. We glean new information and insights from one another and not only feel connected to a community, but are inspired by windows and snapshots into the lives and experiences of others to truly know that we are not alone. You may have seen the recent notices about our new website at autism.com – now we are inviting you to be part of the story.
Today we launch a photo contest to celebrate our community – the theme is “A Story in A Snapshot.”
We hope you’ll share a favorite image of a loved one with autism who inspires you every day. Pick the best photo upload it through our website and earn a chance at an iPad2 and other great prizes.
The deadline for submissions is midnight, June 30, 2012 (CDT).
Grand Prize Winner (a $500 value):
Win your choice of:
- An iPad2
-Or- - Fall 2012 ARI General Conference Registration for two, including three nights of hotel accommodations at the Hyatt Regency Orange County

Self Portraits from Around the World
Children with disabilities, ages 5-18, are encouraged to create a self-portrait that illustrates who they are and who they will be. Will we see a snapshot of where they are today? In their future dream profession? As a fantasy superhero or imaginative superstar? Self-portraits allow artistic freedom for children with disabilities to celebrate the unique qualities they have to share with the world.
