KIND IT Doing the KIND Thing

Published under KIND Snacks Apr 28, 2019

A big KINDOS (our version of ‘kudos’) to the KIND IT Team. In honor of Autism Awareness Month, they partnered with Integrate Autism Employment Advisors, an organization that helps companies identify, recruit and retain professionals on the autism spectrum. It sounds like they had a productive day of networking, team building and mock interviews.

If there was ever an example of the increasing danger of extremists trying to turn kindness into weakness, and in so doing to tear away the social fabric that helps society function, take a look at this article describing how far-right populist politicians in Italy are trying to demonize and diminish kindness. While there may be valid reasons to support or oppose any particular policy, the underlying mood across our world is gravely concerning. We have a huge job ahead if we are going to prevent this from unraveling into an ugly and lasting divide with serious consequences for global security and stability. Dehumanization is the first step in desensitizing society to tolerate atrocities.

It was an honor to be inducted into the Horatio Alger Society alongside such remarkable individuals. I was particularly moved by the story of fellow awardee Vance Cryer. He was the first person to have received a Horatio Alger scholarship and later become inducted into the society. I admire the way that he serves our nation and our community and has risen from challenges in such a noble way. Watch this beautiful note that he wrote to his younger self.
