Autism Awareness Month

As most people know, the month of April is Autism Awareness Month. What is autism? Autism is a developmental disorder that affects the child in the first three years of life. Autism affects the brain's ability to develop social and communication skills. Throughout the month of April, myself, Alexa, amd Mikayla are raising awareness throughout our school. The three of us are the Giving Angels. We're three teenage girls striving to raise awareness to children about this common neourological disorder. Alexa's twin brother, RJ, was diagnosed with autism at the age of two. We will be posting blog posts throughout this project. Caroline Sources: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth/PMH0002494/
