World Awareness Day

As you may know, next Wednesday, April 2nd has been designated 'World Autism Awareness Day'. Events intended to share the knowledge about Autism have been planned world-wide. Island Autism Moms (IAM) has arranged to have two tables set up, one at T&C and the other in front of Lollipops from 9 am until 4 pm. We will be handing out balloons, flowers, Autism Speaks pamphlets, research materials, and display books for children and adults. This isn't about raising funds or collecting signatures, it's about raising Autism awareness.

Please come join us to show your support for this amazing day of national recognition for a disorder that now affects 1 in 150 children. If would like to help out on World Autism Awareness Day, please email Carie Bude at catb@IAM-HOPE.org or visit us on April 2nd, enjoy a flower and balloon and show your support for the those touched by Autism.
