Join us for Henson Day!

This year, the Neurodiversity and Autism Transition Services (NATS) Team will be participating in UMD's Henson Day, with activities related to neurodiversity and Autism, inclusion, belonging, allyship, and empowerment, on Wednesday, September 24, 2025, from 12noon-5pm. We'd love for you to be a part of this event!

We’ll be featuring Julia, a Sesame Street Muppet with autism, alongside her friends Kermit, Elmo, and Grover. Through fun, interactive activities and short Sesame Street clips, we’ll explore Julia’s experiences and spark meaningful conversations about autism awareness and inclusion.

Don’t miss this chance to honor Jim Henson’s legacy while learning, connecting, and celebrating what makes every member of our community unique.
