Autism Awareness Club exists to raise awareness of autism in our community by hosting fundraisers for a variety of charities and participating in community service projects.

Founded in September 2017, the Eden Prairie Autism Awareness Club (EP Blue Birds) is dedicated to breaking the negative stereotypes surrounding students with ASD. Unfortunately, the word 'autistic' is commonly associated with the words 'retarded' and 'stupid' within our society. Due to this negative connotation, many people tend to use autism as an insult to hurt others without realizing the damage it does to affected individuals. 

EP Blue Birds strongly believes that spreading awareness by educating our peers is the key to tackle this societal problem. By organizing fundraisers, discussions, and speakers, we believe that student involvement in learning about autism is the first step towards a more accepting society.

This club is open to all students in grades 9-12.

We use an informational and issue discussion-debate format.  We look for volunteer opportunities to work on campaigns in the community and to make contact with the Democratic Party on the state level as well. We also bring in outside political candidates and other speakers who enlighten us to school board issues, City Council issues, and election procedures. We also would like to be a club that provides a service to our school - we should be prepared to educate our peers when that opportunity arises. Come prepared to discuss, learn, and provide insight. Curiosity and an interest in genuine discourse is a necessity.
