Celebrate Autism Acceptance Month with Dr. Crystal Morrison!

April 14 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm

This event is a celebration of neurodiversity, resilience, and the extraordinary individuals who navigate life on the autism spectrum.

Celebrate Autism Acceptance Month at Riverstone Books with Dr. Crystal Morrison, co-author of Superheroes on the Spectrum. This event is a celebration of neurodiversity, resilience, and the extraordinary individuals who navigate life on the autism spectrum. Authors Rev. Jeannette Paxia and Dr. Crystal Morrison invite you to share in the stories that weave together a rich tapestry of experiences from around the globe—stories that champion awareness, acceptance, and the beauty of seeing the world through a different lens. “Superheroes on the Spectrum” reminds us that diversity is our superpower. Whether you’re on the spectrum, a parent, a caregiver, or someone interested in embracing neurodiversity, this event promises to inspire, educate, and celebrate the unique strengths and perspectives that individuals with autism bring to our world.

At our event, you’ll have the chance to meet Dr. Morrison and some of the contributors. Dr. Morrison will also speak about empowering parents, caregivers and supporters and the power of collaboration to improve outcomes for our children.

There will also be a drawing for prizes from some of our favorite businesses supporting neurodiversity!

Let’s gather to acknowledge the superheroes among us and the supportive heroes behind them. Together, we can create a more inclusive world, filled with understanding, empathy, and appreciation for all forms of human potential.

We can’t wait to share this moment with you, to continue spreading awareness, acceptance, and the joy of neurodiversity. Join us in making a difference—one story, one celebration, at a time.”

Support Littsburgh!
Littsburgh™ is the online destination for the writers, publishing professionals, organizers, institutions, and readers who make Pittsburgh one of the world’s most literary cities.

Founded by three publishing professionals in 2015, Littsburgh showcases Pittsburgh as a hub of literary talent and activity while serving as a resource to foster further collaboration and connection within Pittsburgh’s vibrant literary community.

Littsburgh is a passion project and has been since inception.

Because we’re self-powered, we’ve been able to continue promoting literary Pittsburgh without having to compromise our vision or our mission — and without having to close up shop because of lack of funding. Our goal is for Littsburgh to be here for the long haul… and we’re only getting bigger and better every year!

As our audience has grown, however, so have our operating costs: hosting is increasingly expensive, spreading the word about literary Pittsburgh to our readers via social media channels requires paid “boosts,” and we’re investing literally hundreds of volunteer hours into the site every year.

With a small donation, one time or (even better!) recurring, you can help ensure that Littsburgh continues to grow and thrive.

Help us spread the word about literary Pittsburgh!
