APRIL IS AUTISM AWARENESS MONTH !

Be sure to watch "WNY Live" on WKBW-TV Ch.7 (ABC) at 4:00 PM Friday, April 4
which is the first show in a series about autism during the month of April. I am
proud that WKBW-TV is our major media sponsor for this year's Walk for Autism in
Buffalo. This year's Honorary Co-Chairs are Linda Pellegrino from Ch. 7 "AM
Buffalo" and New York State Assemblyman Sam Hoyt. We are so grateful for
WKBW-TV (also the official station for the Buffalo Bills) for providing more
education and awareness about autism spectrum disorders to viewers across WNY,
Pennsylvania and Canada than any other TV station.

Remember to mark your calendars to watch "WNY Live" and learn more about autism
on WKBW-TV Ch. 7 on April 10 and 18 at 4:00 PM.
