Autism Awareness Day 💙

Today we recognize Autism Awareness Day, a time to increase understanding and support for individuals on the autism spectrum.

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a developmental condition that can affect communication, behavior, learning, and social interaction. Signs often appear in early childhood, which makes early identification and support especially important.

Early screening and intervention can help children build important skills and reach their full potential. Through the 1st Five program, we support young children and families by connecting them with screenings, resources, and services when developmental concerns arise.

Awareness leads to understanding, and early support can make a lasting difference. 💙

Supporting Families & Children

Public health supports families from the very beginning.

Programs that provide nutrition support, developmental screenings, and family resources help children grow, learn, and thrive. Early support helps build a strong foundation for lifelong health.
