Guest guest Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 This Thursday night, the Empire State Building will be lit up blue to commemorate World Autism Awareness Day on Friday. And we'd like your help in lighting the rest of America blue this April - by starting a conversation about autism in your own community. There are lots of ways to do it - from wearing blue on Friday to updating your Facebook status and sharing how autism has touched your life. Sign up to attend or host a Light It Up Blue event in your community: Here are some ways people around the country are planning on lighting it up blue this Friday, and beyond: In Covina, Calif., Whitney R. is asking all of the teachers and staffers at her school to wear blue to work. Over in Atlanta, Amy L. is encouraging her friends to change their Facebook pictures to blue. And in Lanesboro, Mass., Vern M. is hosting moms and family members of children with autism for a conversation over (blue!) beverages. How will you light it up blue? Sign up to take part in an event, or host your own, to help raise autism awareness and understanding: http://www.LightItUpBlue.org <http://action.autismspeaks.org/page/m/5ecb3d17/5eae3303/66ff909c/2c139ca2/3 527203569/VEsF/> Thanks so much!
