Correction: Yesterday’s item on the Autism Self Advocacy Network incorrectly stated who was behind the PSAs that ASAN took issue with. The Ad Council and Autism Speaks borrowed the “Sesame Street” autistic character Julia to air PSAs, and ASAN took issue with some of the resources linked to in these PSAs.
