Autism Awareness


This is my nephew Blake, he was diagnosed with Autism when he was 2, he is now 5 and has improved so much with the help of Occupational and Speech therapy, as well as family. Blake has been going to school since he was 3, he has had 2 years of special needs pre k and kindergarten. He will be integrated into a non-special needs 1st grade next year. Blake has earned his yellow belt in karate and will be playing soccer this year.
