AUTISM SPEAKS and LIGHT IT UP BLUE
Light It Up Blue is a unique global initiative to help raise awareness about the growing public health concern that is autism. This event was launched by Autism Speaks in 2010 in support of World Autism Awareness Day which takes place each year on April 1. On this day, over 3000 structures around the world will be illuminated in blue to shine a bright light on autism. We would like Hawthorne to participate in this day by having staff and students wear blue. Students will be reminded of the details when we return from Spring Break.
