The holiday season brings joy and celebration—but for many people with intellectual disabilities, it can also bring unique challenges that often go unseen.

Bright lights, crowded stores, loud gatherings, changes in routine, and social expectations can create sensory overload, anxiety, and stress. Even well-intentioned traditions can become overwhelming without the right support.

This season, let’s lead with compassion.
💛 Be patient.
💛 Offer choices.
💛 Create quiet spaces.
💛 Check in and listen.
💛 Celebrate in ways that feel comfortable and inclusive.

Together, we can make the holidays brighter, calmer, and more welcoming for everyone.
