The 12th annual Steps of Hope autism awareness walk will take place at Ridgedale Shopping Center on March 4, 2012. Established in 1971, the Autism Society of Minnesota (AuSM) is an organization of families, educators, care givers, and professionals committed to supporting individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). AuSM exists to enhance the lives of individuals with ASD, and it seeks to realize its mission through education support, collaboration, and advocacy. I have had the pleasure of serving as the official spokesperson for AuSM during my year as Miss Minnesota.
AuSM keeps all your dollars local. Proceeds from Steps of Hope directly serve families in your neighborhood by supporting AuSM's programs. For over 40 years AuSM programs have provided information and support to individuals, families and professionals that care for people living with autism.

Steps of Hope is a yearly gathering for individuals, family members, and professionals connected to the autism community. This will by my fifth year attending Steps of Hope. I will never forget the first time I attended the event. Growing up, I felt very much alone in my experience having a brother with Autism Spectrum Disorder, so coming to Steps of Hope for the first time as a high school senior and seeing thousands of people gathered to support their loved ones with autism was, in a word, incredible. The purpose of Steps of Hope is to bring the autism community together and to let families know that they are being supported by AuSM and each other; they are not alone. Please support this incredible community event and organization. For more information, visit www.ausm.org.
