** APRIL 2nd is AUTISM AWARENESS DAY **

In 2007, the United Nations General Assembly declared April 2 as World Autism Awareness Day (WAAD) with the goal of bringing the world’s attention to autism, a pervasive disorder that affects tens of millions globally.  WAAD shines a bright light on autism as a growing global health concern.  Support continues throughout the month of April in much of the world as April is also considered Autism Awareness Month. Light It Up Blue (LIUB) is a unique global initiative to help raise awareness about the growing public health concern that is autism.  Iconic landmarks around the world Light It Up Blue in celebration of World Autism Awareness Day to show their support!  Toronto’s CN Tower was one of these landmarks last year.
