World Autism Awareness Day is Thursday, April 2.  To raise awareness about autism and its effect on individuals and their families, KDLT-TV will "Light It Up Blue" for autism awareness by lighting up the three large satellite dishes adjacent to their studios on Westport Avenue.

Light It Up Blue is a world-wide initiative with thousands of iconic landmarks, communities, businesses and homes around the world participating.

Last year, over 10,000 events and buildings went blue.  By lighting it up on April 2, you'll help start a conversation towards helping individuals with autism.
