Autism Canada and Light It Up Blue | Neinstein Personal Injury Lawyers

On April 2, Neinstein Personal Injury Lawyers is participating in Light It Up Blue, the signature campaign of Autism Speaks, Canada’s largest autism advocacy organization.

This inspiring event celebrates the start of World Autism Month. It will involve “thousands of iconic landmarks and buildings” and “hundreds of thousands of homes and communities around the world” lighting themselves blue in support of people living with autism, according to autismspeaks.ca.

Get involved

World-famous landmarks from across the globe have participated in past Light It Up Blue campaigns, including China’s Shanghai Tower, the Empire State Building in New York, Burj Khalifa – the world’s tallest building – in Dubai, and of course the CN Tower in our hometown of Toronto.

This event isn’t restricted to global landmarks, though: anyone can get involved. Visit autismspeaks.org to purchase merchandise in support of Autism Speaks; raise awareness on April 2nd by wearing blue to work or school; or spread the word on social media by using #LightItUpBlue or adding a customized blue frame to your Twitter or Facebook profile pictures.

About 1 in 68 children is on the autism spectrum

Autism touches a large number of Canadian families. According to the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about one out of every 68 American children is on the autism spectrum. Children and families living with autism face a multitude of challenges, including social stigma, financial stresses, and educational deficits. By supporting programs like Light It Up Blue and organizations like Autism Speaks Canada, Neinstein Personal Injury Lawyers is seeking to raise awareness of autism and help build a more understanding and educated society.
