Visiting Disneyland with a disability

Disneyland has a great reputation for supporting people with disabilities in many ways. They even do a lot of charitable work to sponsor kids with disabilities to Disneyland that otherwise wouldn't be able to go.
That's why it's so surprising to me that they don't offer an actual discount on admission price.
I talked to a family recently that had a great experience there. The most important thing for them is that they received a special pass that allowed them to go to the front of the line for Disneyland rides, as well as other attractions.
As their daughter is severely autistic and not able to tolerate long waiting times well, this was a huge benefit to the family. It's actually what made their family visit possible.
This kind of benefit can mean a lot - especially in the heat. Anything that can get vulnerable out of a hot line-up is a good thing. And Disneyland benefits from not having to contend with people who are sick on the grounds.
I'm interested in knowing about your experiences in visiting Disneyland with a disability too. Pictures would be especially welcome!
We can all benefit from each others experiences.
