Hoods Up Volume Down will happen on Wednesday, April 29th, at 10am. We're asking everyone to turn down the lights, turn down the noise and turn up for the autistic and wider autism communities.
This is an opportunity to make your environment more accessible to autistic people. During this hour, we invite you to limit the sensory input in your environment, including lighting and sound.
We also encourage everyone to wear hoodies during the Hoods Up Volume Down Event. Many autistic people use hoodies as a subtle way to block out overwhelming sensory input, so they've become a symbol of a community ready to truly accept autism and embrace the accommodations needed to create an accessible society.
