NCAA Autism Awareness and Acceptance Weekend Set for Feb. 9-11

Last season, more than 330 NCAA coaches participated by wearing an Autism Speaks blue puzzle piece lapel pin to help increase understanding and acceptance of people with autism.

Autism Speaks Coaches Powering Forward will take place on the weekend of February 9-11, 2018.
Last season, more than 330 NCAA coaches participated by wearing an Autism Speaks blue puzzle piece lapel pin to help increase understanding and acceptance of people with autism. In total, more than 3,900 pins were worn by coaching staff, officials, broadcasters, elementary and high school teams. We hope your coach and staff will join us for this important cause.
Autism affects one in every 68 children in the U.S and for most, is a lifelong condition. As fathers of sons with autism, we know firsthand the struggles families and individuals experience and sincerely appreciate your participation.
