The purpose of the Essay Contest is to expand this independent film’s outreach in order to touch the hearts of those who care about the 1 in 68 Americans born each year who are diagnosed with Autism. Each essay submission is extremely important to Autism Media in that each writer joins the mission of the film to awaken society to serious need to provide solutions for ASD individuals when they become adults and their parents are no longer around to care for them. That is why each writer will be asked to participate and perhaps present his or her essay during the screening events of “Believing in miracles in spite of Autism” when the film is screened in their area as well as help promote the film by posting and sharing flyers and posts on their preferred social media platform(s).
