We held this post a day because we wanted to include Autism Speaks awesome round-up of coverage from World Autism Awareness Day. How did you take part? As we embark on a full month of autism awareness (though really every day should be one where we aim to raise awareness about all special needs) we’d love to hear what you think about autism, children with special needs, and our coverage of both.
