And our Friends of Autism…
We are continually amazed by the UNO National Student Speech Language Hearing Asociation (NSSLHA) group. They help our Omaha support group at their monthly support group (actually … whenever we ask) and they just shared with the Autism Society a video that they made at their fundrasier last week. We just can’t express …how amazing it feels to see these college students so connected to our kids. Together We Danced…and Together We ARE making an amazing future for so many kids! Thank you to these amazing college student/upcoming educational professionals!

…with the wrestling team at Dana College!
Dana College is very excited to team up with Jason Bross and the Autism Society of Nebraska to put on the first Pinning Down Autism wrestling event in the Midwest. Pinning Down Autism was born out of the idea of a couple of highschool wrestling coaches who had children on the autism spectrum. Jennifer Vest, an Autism Specialist for Millard Public Schools discovered this program three years ago and has been working to start an event here in Blair ever since. The Autism Society is honored to work with them all to create an amazing autism awareness fundraiser here in our community!
Please help us spread word about this tournament. Please share the information with your family, neighbors, friends, school and especially the coaches at your school! This tournament will be divided up by weight and age and is open up to grade school age and above.
This is an amazing opportunity to bring Autism awareness to our community with the added benefit of helping educate those peers who attend class alongside your children! The Autism Society would like to invite everyone to come out and help make this a great day for autism awareness as well as support the wrestling community as they support our autism community!
There will also be a kids carnival onsite to help entertain younger children as well as some resource vendors sharing community information.
The Autism Society has also created a fundraising page to help support the efforts! Visit www.firstgiving.com/asn to donate or start your own fundraising page!
We are thrilled to announce that there will be multiple walks across the state. Please visit the links below to find out more about a walk near you. And if there isn’t a walk in your community … don’t worry … you can still support all Nebraska families as a virtual walker! We need everyone from Omaha to Ogallala to support this effort so that the Autism Society of Nebraska can better support each and every one of you!
NO WALK NEAR YOU? YOU CAN STILL JOIN US ONLINE AS A VIRTUAL WALKER.

**And on behalf of ASN, I want to thank the UNO NSSLHA group for all of their tremendous support! Last year they had over 30 walkers show up to the walk and several helped as volunteers. This year their faces are appearing at many autism friendly events…Children’s Museum Autism Night, Rose theater Autism Classes, The Omaha Autism Family Support Group’s Swim Party and most recently Pump It Up (to name a few!) These speech language students are learning hands on about autism and are going to take that experience into their profession where they will be working with our loved ones! This is an amazing group who has been an amazing support for the Omaha autism community!
