On Sept. 29, 2021, during the season finale of 'Big Brother' on CBS, Britini D'Angelo revealed that she is an autistic individual. Her goal in sharing this was to bring awareness about autism and ultimately stop its stigma around it.

After the diagnosis became official, Britini's parents met with a psychiatrist who connected their family to Summit Educational Resources, known as The Summit Center.

"I come from a family of educators," Britini explained."And I was given so much by so many educators.
