Autism Awareness Month: Where to Go, What to DO!

There is just so much happening--I am getting email blasts, twitter updates, facebook invites, friendfeed overloads. I am a list maker, so I thought I would make myself a list of the many awareness generating, fund raising, and community support events taking place on this day, Autism Awareness Day, and throughout the month of April.

The Soft Blog has started to regularly profile blogs that cover issues related to Autism, Aspergers, Sensory Processing Disorder, Special Needs, Parenting and more. The purpose is twofold--to bring much deserved attention and traffic to blogs that deal with these topics, as well as to create a resource archive on the Soft Blog--for our readers and Google searchers everywhere. If you would like your blog to be profiled, email us at info@softclothing.net. I recently got to ask Kristi from Autism Blessings, Challenges, The ABC's of My Life the following questions about her blog.
