Tuesday was Autism Twitter Day, but that doesn't mean much to you if you don't use Twitter. I didn't either until a few weeks ago, but there's an amazing community of special needs parents and experts there. This slideshow introduces the basis concept of Twitter and summarizes the day. Twitter may or may not be for you -- it's just one more social networking tool -- but I like its immediacy and simplicity.
For Autism Twitter Day, I led a discussion on therapy dogs for people with autism. If you have a Twitter account or want to create one at Twitter.com, follow me at MMiller20910 (my personal account) and childrenshealth (my work account).
Advocating for children and adults with disabilities, this blog began during the 2008 presidential campaign to track the candidates' positions and records. Citizen advocacy for people with disabilities and their families is critical, and not just during election seasons. Don't let your elected officials play politics with your children and loved ones. They deserve better.
