There are a number of events taking place locally.

Alicia Turner is the President of Autism Ontario’s North East Chapter.  She says there’s an Autism Jams event tonight at Cecils starting at 8pm, with entertainment all night.

Meantime, 550 cities, towns and schools in Ontario are raising the flag in support of people with Autism Spectrum Disorder, including North Bay.

Turner says a flag raising goes at City Hall tomorrow morning at 10:30.

Another awareness event is taking place tomorrow at One Kids Place from 4pm to 6pm — that is open to the public too.

Overall, one in 94 children in Canada is diagnosed with autism.
