Challenge Coin to spread your support
Challenge Coins were originally used by the Roman Empire to present to their soldiers for special recognition. They are now used as collector items by law enforcement , military and others to commemorate specific events. On this coin, the symbols represent those persons on the autism spectrum and neurologic disorders. The bearer of this coin is showing their support and awareness of the special care they require.

We are reaching out to multiple counties and states to help proclaim April the Autism Awareness month. We are also encouraging businesses and governments to choose a Wear Blue Day. We have received multiple acknowledgements and participations in Maryland. AFYI is thrilled that much of Maryland is sensitive, supportive, and anxious to participate to bring more awareness to the Autism Community and how our communities can level the ground for them through training, acceptance, and community action. If you want to participate in Wear Blue Day or want your city or county or State to participate, please email me at Joy@autismfyi.org. Follow this link to see the proclamations .
