Worcester, MA based Behavioral Concepts, Inc. (BCI), is stepping up and taking strides in the 5K Run & Walk for Autism Acceptance on Saturday, April 29 at DCR's Lake Park.

April is National Autism Awareness Month, and BCI is supporting the 5K Run & Walk for Autism Acceptance, which benefits HMEA’s Autism Resource Central of West Boylston, MA, by participating in and sponsoring the event.

BCI's 5K team of seven staff has been fundraising and gearing up to walk/run in this event. BCI staff will also host a "Kids Corner" of activities and entertainment for all children, which will include spin art Frisbees, face painting, a photo booth with a "make your own" frame, kinetic sand tables, and more.

BCI, a company of behavioral clinicians specializing in the care of children with autism in Central Massachusetts, is a major sponsor of the 5K Run & Walk for Autism Acceptance with their contribution of $7,500.

“The Autism Resource Central’s run/walk is BCI's signature event during National Autism Awareness month,” said Jeff Robinson, Ph. D., BCI's founder and CEO. “We believe that the services provided to families by Autism Resource Central are critical to strengthening, educating and supporting families affected by Autism Spectrum Disorder."
