For those kiddos who love trains, the Autism Transit Project is coming to Chicago!
This project offers children on the spectrum the chance to record a regular subway service announcement that would then be played throughout the CTA transit system in April for Autism Acceptance Month. It is a way that the CTA will honor its special relationship with some special children.
You can see some of the media coverage this project has received from The New York Times, NBC Nightly News, NPR national, GMA, etc.
Any child in the Chicago metropolitan area who might like to have their own voice heard by making a CTA announcement that riders hear can DM me or -- better yet! -- have their family email us at: [email protected].
Everyone who emails will receive a reply with next steps and instructions. But space is limited! So please reply fast. And feel free to spread the word to friends. We are actively recruiting!!!
Autism Awareness Month raises awareness to increase understanding and acceptance of people with autism worldwide.SUBSCRIBE to GMA's YouTube page:https://bit....
