Earlier, President Trump released a proclamation that coincided with World Autism Awareness Day to show support for those with an autism spectrum disorder.
“To maximize the quality of life across the entire autism spectrum, we must ensure that ASD is accurately identified and diagnosed in both children and adults,” the president’s statement read.
“On World Autism Awareness Day, let us renew our commitment to support the entire international ASD community, including children and adults with ASD, their families, and caregivers,” he added.
