Autism

There is a Change.org petition going around on social media for a young man named Joseph. Joseph is autistic and his school, Marcy Elementary, has decided it was best to exclude him from the Kindergarten Graduation Ceremony. Joseph's aunt Denise started the petition to get her nephew included in the ceremony with everyone else.

The bright lights, loud music and long lines can often keep autistic kids from engaging in a holiday ritual many children enjoy: an annual visit with Santa. So one mall opened early last Sunday morning for some low-key “sensitive Santa” time.

Several of your favorite country performers are opening their hearts and joining in a special auction to raise awareness in Autism.  Here's your chance to get autographed Easter items and help the cause for Autism Awareness.
