To every non-autistic person, My autistic brain and I would like you to know: - I say what I mean. Don’t ever get upset over something you think I’ve implied. I don’t imply. - I care, I just show it differently. - I feel emotions, I’m just succinct in my expression of them.

Honored to celebrate @asdnestnyu's 20th anniversary! Since 2015, 97% of Nest Students graduate in 4 years. This is a perfect example of what our students are capable of when we deliver high-quality education. In fact, this fall, we've added ASD Nest programs in 14 NYC schools.

Those of us who have experienced the challenge of having a learning disability know what it means to learn differently. For 20 years the Autism Spectrum Disorders Nest at New York University has been changing lives of our NYC Public Schools kids for the better.
