“Autism is not limited to a
single region or country; raise awareness about autism across
the globe.”
The seventh annual World Autism Awareness Day is April 2, 2014. This day
celebrates the unique talents and skills of persons with autism and is a day
when individuals with autism are warmly welcomed and embraced in community
events around the globe.
Raise awareness about autism throughout society and encourage
early diagnosis and early intervention.

World
Autism Awareness Day is about more than generating understanding; it is a call
to action. It is urged all concerned to take part in fostering
progress by supporting education programmes, employment opportunities and other
measures that help realize our shared vision of a more inclusive world.
Autism affects girls and boys of all races and in all geographic
regions and has a large impact on children, their families, communities and
societies. The prevalence is currently rising in many countries around the
world. Caring for and educating children and young people with this condition
places challenges on health care, education and training programs.
