BASE Acknowledged For “The Fine Work” They Do on World Autism Day

Community   |   April 12, 2018

Countless parents and advocates of children with Autism were acknowledged for “the fine work” they do with the Bermuda Autism Support and Education (BASE) group this week.

Health Minister Kim Wilson delivered the proclamation on the steps of City Hall on World Autism Awareness Day, celebrated on Tuesday, April 10, 2018, as observed by the United Nations for the last ten years.

World Autism Awareness Day encourages UN Member states to take measures to raise awareness about autism throughout society.

World Autism Awareness Day aims to inform the general public about the global health crisis of autism, stress the importance of early diagnosis and early intervention, and to celebrate the unique talents and qualities of individuals with autism.

Autism is a lifelong condition for which the bulk of the costs fall in adulthood, creating an impact on communities.
