Did you know drowning is the leading cause of death for children with autism?
Children with ASD are significantly more at risk — up to 160 times more likely to drown than their neurotypical peers, according to the Autism Society of America.
That’s why swimming skills, close supervision, and multiple layers of protection are so important for this community.
This World Autism Awareness Day, take action. 💙 Learn about water safety resources at: Autismfl.org, Swimangelfish.com, Nationalautismassociation.org, Goldfishswimschool.com/locations/, to find research and local swim lesson providers.
