Southwest Autism Research & Resource Center (SARRC) is excited to celebrate the 4th annual YES Day Walk for Autism™ with our supportive community on Sunday, Oct. 27, 2024!
This year, we are thrilled to introduce a 1-Mile Family-Friendly Walk during the event! SARRC YES Day walk teams are invited to join our inaugural community one-mile walk at their own pace, offering a fun and engaging way to boost your 2024 fundraising efforts! Opening Ceremonies begin at 9 a.m., with an instructor-led stretch session to warm up our attendees for the Walk. Following the walk, participants can enjoy all that our fourth annual event has to offer!
The event will also include a large quiet zone where families can take breaks.
Leading up to the October 27 event, we encourage our community to register in advance to help raise funds, awareness and acceptance! Everyone is invited and encouraged to join our efforts: families, friends, partners, and the community at large, who are driven by a desire to create more supportive, inclusive communities for people with autism.
