Last Chance: Shine a Light on Autism

Today is World Autism Awareness Day.

 

It's World Autism Awareness Day, and landmarks around the world are being lit up blue to raise awareness of the conditon. Today you can shine a blue light on your porch, throw a blue-themed party to raise funds to research the prevention and treatment of autism, or just join the cause at Light It Up Blue.

Whatever you choose to do to observe the day, take a photo and upload it to this article to show your neighbors.
