To everyone who rode, donated, volunteered, sponsored, or cheered us on along the way: thank you. Your support is creating opportunities that change lives.

Creating employment opportunities for autistic young adults takes more than any one organization. It requires collaboration between employers, community partners, policymakers, and workforce development leaders who are committed to building a more inclusive future.

In this month’s Letter from the CEO, Ann Marie Sullivan reflects on a recent roundtable discussion with New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development Commissioner Kevin Jarvis, organized by the Commerce and Industry Association of New Jersey (CIANJ), and why partnerships like these are critical to expanding employment opportunities for autistic individuals across our state.

The conversation reinforced an important truth: meaningful progress happens when government agencies, employers, nonprofit organizations, and community leaders work together toward a common goal.

Autism Acceptance is all about creating conversations that lead to greater understanding, inclusion, and opportunity and we were so grateful to celebrate with the team at Rent the Runway 💙

Employees across the company stopped by throughout the day to spin the prize wheel, participate in our raffle, and learn more about the importance of inclusive employment opportunities for autistic individuals.

Their staff brought so much energy and enthusiasm to the event, and we are especially grateful to the leadership and HR teams for their support in helping make the experience engaging and meaningful for everyone involved.

We also want to give a special thank you to our mentor award recipients, whose ongoing support, encouragement, and dedication make a meaningful difference for their autistic coworkers and interns every single day.

Thank you to Rent the Runway for continuing to create a workplace culture centered around inclusion, awareness, and opportunity.

What an amazing day celebrating Autism Acceptance Month as the Free Cone Day partner at Ben & Jerry’s in West New York! 💙🍦

The store was filled with so much positive energy, from neighbors showing up to support inclusive employment to families cheering on the autistic young adults who were scooping with confidence.

Some of the most heartwarming moments of the day were seeing so many people choose to make a donation to skip the line, and even paying it forward for other community members to skip the line with them.

We were also thrilled to welcome West New York High School students, who stopped by to see their neurodiverse classmates in action behind the counter. Their excitement and encouragement made the day even more special.

Thank you to everyone who visited, donated, or helped spread the word! We are immensely grateful for days like this that show what can happen when a community comes together.
