• Inclusion is a right and a responsibility;
• Inclusion works to the benefit of all;

• Not every member of every group agrees with these terminology choices;
• Officers who are aware of these issues and who exhibit thoughtfulness and sensitivity when referring to individuals with ASD can avoid offending students and their families.
