Autism CARE walk at Heartspring - April 4th

The Autism CARE Walk raises awareness about autism spectrum disorders in our community and across the nation. This year’s walk will be approximately 1.5 miles and will start and finish on the Heartspring campus at 8700 E 29th St North in Wichita on April 4th.

The Autism CARE Walk at Heartspring is more than just a walk – it is a walk with a mission! CARE stands for Community of Autism Resources and Education, and any funds raised through this event will help benefit local children who are diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder through workshops and programs offered by Heartspring. The need for autism resources in Sedgwick County has never been greater with over 700 families identified as having a family member with autism.
