April has been the offical month for Autism since the late 1970s, which is why it is encouraged for people to participate these last couple weeks as much as possible. The Autism Awareness Puzzle Ribbon is the most recognized symbol of the autism community in the world. Autism prevalence is now one in every 110 children in America, which = 13 million families and growing who live with autism today.
Autism diagnoses are much more common in males than in females. According to the 2006 study results, one in 70 boys in the nation have an autism diagnosis while only one in 315 girls are on the autism spectrum.
Show your support for people with autism by wearing the Autism Awareness Puzzle Ribbon this month. You can wear it as a pin on your shirt, a magnet on your car, a badge on your blog, or even your Facebook profile picture. This is truly an excellent way to show awareness and educate people on the potential of people with autism. Also, For the first time ever, supporters can now simply text “AUTISM” to 50555 to donate $10 to the Autism Society. 100% of your donations will go to support the Autism Society’s mission of improving the lives of all affected by autism.
