Autism Walk and Expo of the Hudson Valley Region Seeks Participants

Lace up your sneakers and gather up your pledges....Here's your chance to raise critically needed funds to help connect the pieces of the puzzle of autism - the mysterious developmental disability that currently affects 1 out of 150 children in the United States today.While we don't know the causes of autism, early intervention goes a long way. Signs of autism in young children include serious speech delay, poor eye contact, sensory issues and extreme tantrums for no apparent reason. With proper treatment, children with autism can learn to play, talk, read, write and do most other activities.

The Autism Walk & Expo of the Hudson Valley Region will help raise funds for local programs, with a small portion allocated towards research, and will take place at the Dutchess County Fairgrounds, Rhinebeck, NY on Sunday, April 27, rain or shine, starting at 9am. Participants will walk along a one- to two- mile track, and individuals, as well as corporate teams, are encouraged to take part.

For more information, contact Karen Kosack, Founder & Program Chair, at 845-226- 7525 or visit www.autismwalkhv.org.
