We love to Light It Up Blue #LIUB #autismawareness |
“We hope ‘awareness,’ on this day and every day, means that more children around the world will be able to access the therapy that will help them communicate and reach their full potential. And we hope more families will find support, at both the political and personal level, to make it through the challenging times.” |
From On World Autism Awareness Day, Gratitude — and a Wish List by Kathleen O’Brien on Motherlode, the New York Times’ parenting blog |

Autism Speaks co-founders Bob and Suzanne Wright kicked off the day with a lighting ceremony in the lobby of the Empire State Building. Deron Williams, his wife Amy, and son Deron Williams Jr. were the honored guests. |
