In 2023, Bacot Academy launched the Au-some Fest with the dual purpose of raising awareness about autism and offering valuable resources to the community in a single event. By organizing this festival, Bacot Academy aimed to shine a light on autism, promoting understanding and acceptance while providing a platform for individuals and families affected by autism to access information and support. The Au-some Fest serves as a unique opportunity for the community to come together, learn more about autism, celebrate neurodiversity, and foster a more inclusive and supportive environment for individuals on the autism spectrum.
