April is AutismAcceptanceMonth, a time to learn more about people on the spectrum. HsuTV met Kerrymagro, a local man with autism who's spreading awareness and understanding throughout the world.
"It received over 4.1 million views on TikTok. I just had so many parents, educators, family members who just wanted to learn more about autism, and they were like, keep going, keep doing what you're doing because it's making a difference," he said.
In college, he started a nonprofit called KFM Making a Difference, which awards students who have autism with college scholarships. He later earned his doctorate in education."We've gotten inquiries from people from Africa, Canada, the U.K. It's just shown me that we're not alone in this community. There are people impacted by autism across the globe," Magro said.
"You are going to find 100 amazing autistic adults' stories of how they were able to navigate their adolescence and ultimately succeed in their journeys," Magro said.
