April is Autism Awareness Month...

Posted by Unknown at 9:39 PM
April is Autism Awareness month. Although family members of those who have autism live with the awareness every single day, an awareness month is an excellent way to bring autism to the forefront of those who do not have to live with it. According to the US Centers for Disease Control & Prevention, about 1in 88 children have some form of autism. This disorder whose roots are still unknown affects so many families worldwide. Use this month to take some time to do a little research on the topic and find a way, no matter how small or simple it may be, to help. Autism Speaks is an excellent place to read up on this condition and get ideas of how you can help. In honor of Autism Awareness month I will do a few posts throughout the month on the topic.

The world is a happier and better place when we can all be their for each other.
