Candy-Land 5K and 13th Annual Walk for Autism Awareness
Start gathering your team now for Bill & Virginia Leffen Center for Autism’s 13th annual Walk for Autism Awareness and our non-competitive 5K! Walk or run in honor of a loved one, family member or friend with autism, and promote autism awareness and acceptance. The Walk for Autism Awareness and Candy-Land 5K are both virtual events this year.
Themed costumes and team shirts are encouraged. Members of the same team may participate in different events. A resource fair will follow the events.
All proceeds benefit program development and scholarship assistance at Bill & Virginia Leffen Center for Autism.
