April is Autism Awareness Month --Shine a Light on Autism! Let’s Light It Up Blue #LIUB
April 2nd is the annual celebration of creating awareness and acceptance of Autism. Since 2008, World Autism Awareness Day (WAAD) has been celebrated. To mark this day, thousands of people are coming together to Light It Up Blue. Join Autism Speaks (www.LightItUpBlue.org), Action for Autism, Forum for Autism in India & also other organisations working for Autism to Light It Up Blue and help shine a light on Autism!
Autism awareness is more important than ever. Why is the need more now?Autism is the third most common developmental disorder. Forum for Autism (FFA), a parent Support Group from Mumbai for families of children having Autism Spectrum Disorder(ASD) says that when they started out about 1 in 1500 persons was diagnosed with ASD. Today they find the ratio to be gone up to 1 in every hundred. It is alarming!
This increase can only be addressed by early intervention, improved diagnosis and growing awareness.Please join our efforts and support Autism Awareness.
