Mostly Free and Fun Things to Do in CT With Kids This Weekend April 6-7: Autism Awareness, Scavenger Hunts and Expos
Submitted by Pam Hegner on
April is Autism Awareness Month, and according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), it affects 1 in 88 children, making it the fastest-growing developmental disability in the country, with no cure. The CDC also reports it can cost a family an average of $60,000 a year. I know several wonderful children who have been diagnosed, and their parents want awareness, research and resources to help their young ones live long, meaningful lives.
