My first walk for autismPosted on 08 Oct, 2009
This past Sunday I had the chance to attend my first every walk for autism event. The event was in Long Island, and it sure did bring out quite the crowd. A lot of money was raised for autism research and awareness, and I was able to meet a lot of friendly, active individuals in the autism field. I am a school teacher in NY, so it was a good learning experience for me, b/c I do have a few children with ASD's in the classes that I teach. I even saw one of the students and his mother there as well unexpectedly. The effort that the autism community puts forward is phenomenal, and I just felt great being a part of it!
