We've been reporting that one 1 in 88 children has Autism--that's according to numbers recently released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Yesterday kicked off Autism Awareness Month, so the Empire State Building shined a blue light last night to honor Autism Speaks.

Three years ago, Autism Speaks launched the effort to light up iconic buildings in every April 2, which is World Autism Awareness Day.
