recently announced it will be a silver sponsor for the Autism Resource Center 2013 5K Run and Walk for Autism Awareness. The run/walk takes place on April 28 at DCR's Lake Park in Worcester.

“April has become world renowned as Autism Awareness month, a movement started by Autism Speaks, an international non-profit devoted to educating people the world round on autism. The Autism Resource Center’s run/walk has become our signature event in helping raise funds and awareness,” said Dr. Jeff Robinson, BCI founder and director.

Proceeds from the walk and run will go to the Autism Resource Center of Central Massachusetts, a non-profit located at 71 Sterling Street in West Boylston, Massachusetts (508-835-4278). The Center serves as an information and referral service for children and families affected by disorders within the Autism Spectrum; Autism, PDD NOS and Asperger's.

More than 100 people (staff/families) are currently signed up to wear our BCI t-shirts at the event. BCI will have a table with informational brochures and host several fun activities before, during and after the race. Several BCI staff members are slated to run or walk.

“The Resource Center is just that, an incredible and invaluable resource to children with autism and their families,” said Robinson. “We are delighted to do all we can to help such a worthy cause. And we have plenty of room for more participants for our team.”
