about why we are doing Autistic Advocacy Month. I am so excited to tell you about an upcoming business partnership of today's autistic moment with Queer Munity. Queermunity is an Aud queer owned establishment in Minneapolis. Co founders Hilary Otay and Caleb Barth have used their experiences with queer places that were not designed with neurodivergence in mind. and created their business to offer neurodivergent queer Minnesotans a space that was made just for them. It is difficult for me to put into words a My own experience when I had a mid afternoon lunch at Queermunity just a couple weeks ago because it was so incredible. I sauce a soundproof divider with some woofers above them to be sure that reverberation is kept to a minimum so that all conversations would be kept private between the people engaged in them.
There was no overwhelming loud music, but They have meeting rooms for rent that can also be used as quiet spaces if they are needed. There are a few lounge areas that are carpeted where people can study.
