As we know April is “World Autism Month” beginning with United Nations-sanctioned World Autism Awareness Day on April 2. Throughout the month, we focus on sharing stories and providing opportunities to increase understanding and acceptance of people with autism, fostering worldwide support. In April, IBT will have events going on throughout the state (and virtually) we would love for you to participate and support to help IBT’s mission!
