CASP lit up in blue for World Autism Awareness Day

El CASP se iluminó de azul por el Día Mundial de Concientización del Autismo

As part of the World Autism Awareness Day that is held on April 2, CASP joined a proposal on lighting up their edifice in blue as a way of creating identity and promoting actions for autism awareness around the world.

It is worth mentioning that the United Nations General Assembly declared April 2 as World Autism Awareness Day and that the Autism Speaks organization was responsible for launching the global initiative to light the most emblematic buildings in different countries in blue in support of autism awareness.

The Peruvian initiative is part of the activities organized in April by the Association for Persons with a autism spectrum disorder to sensitize our society on issues people with autism and their families are facing today.
