Description

Autism was created to raise awareness about Autism.  Autism is a developmental disorder that appears in the first 3 years of life, and affects the brain’s normal development of social and communication skills.  In order to highlight the growing need for concern and awareness about autism, the Autism Society has been celebrating National Autism Awareness Month since the 1970s. The United States recognizes April as a special opportunity to educate the public about autism and issues within the autism community.
