Light it Up Blue for Autism Awareness Day

Light It Up Blue, a global autism awareness campaign, is helping to shine a light on autism.

The initiative is being organized by Autism Speaks, that aims to change the future of all who struggle with autism spectrum disorders. 

Currently in its third year, Light It Up Blue is a unique global initiative that helps shine a light on the growing public health concern of autism.

Today, on World Autism Awareness Day, iconic landmarks around the world, such as the Empire State Building in New York City, the Sydney Opera House in Australia and the Great Buddha at Hyogo in Japan will go blue to show their support. And closer to home, West Orange town hall will also shine blue.
