Shield HealthCare Celebrates World Autism Awareness Day 2014 – Light It Up Blue

Each April 2nd, World Autism Awareness Day is celebrated around the world. The United Nations adopted this day in 2007 in order to shine a light on autism as a global health crisis.

On World Autism Awareness Day, Shield HealthCare is lighting it up blue with Autism Speaks to help raise awareness and to emphasize the importance of early diagnosis and early intervention. This day also gives us the opportunity to celebrate the many unique talents and gifts of cherished loved ones with autism, and to recognize their contributions which enrich our communities – and to Light It Up Blue!
