April is Autism Awareness Month


April is Autism Awareness Month!  What is your school or community doing to raise awareness?  Please share your ideas with a comment!!!
Here in Columbus, Ohio Autism Speaks has a large presence.  There is an annual walk that raises approximately $1 million dollars each year that is used for research and awareness.  The Special Learning Centers in our school have created our own t-shirts and walk together as a team at the Autism Speaks walk.
The National Autism Association conducts fundraisers across the country to support families.  The Southeast Ohio NAA chapter raised approximately $60,000 that is offered as grants to many families in their area to get biomedical treatment, therapy and iPads.
The National Autism Association will receive proceeds from the purchase of this adorable Autism Awareness T-Shirt.
