Who are your Hometown Heroes?
Do you know a Hometown Hero? Someone who goes “above and beyond” to
make a difference for individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)
in our community? Perhaps he or she is a teacher, a service provider,
a professional, a volunteer, a mentor or coach, a classmate, a
neighbor, a sibling, aunt, uncle or grandparent.
The Anne Arundel County Chapter of the Autism Society wants to
recognize the efforts of these people, who might not otherwise receive
the recognition they deserve. As part of our Autism Awareness Month
activities, we are planning once again to dedicate our April meeting,
Tuesday, April 27, to recognizing Hometown Heroes for ASD. We are now
accepting nominations for this year's awards. Nominations are due by
Monday, April 5.
You can help us spotlight and thank them for the value they bring to
the lives of individuals with autism spectrum disorders.
We will honor each nominee by presenting them with an award and by
sharing the information that you have provided about their
contributions and the value they bring to our community.
To nominate your hero, please fill out the form below, or click here

Please note: We ask that you submit no more than two nominations (you
may nominate an individual or a group). No repeat nominations, please!
If you have submitted nominations in the past, please honor different
people this year.
