While many people focus on autism as a national issue, President-elect Obama will have the opportunity to raise awareness globally.
Ivan Corea of the UK Autism Foundation released this message: "I congratulate Barack Obama for winning the presidency of the United States of America, we hope that the winds of change will involve parents, carers, children, and adults with autism and Asperger’s Syndrome. I urge President Obama to make a clear statement to the world on autism on the United Nations World Autism Awareness Day on April 2, 2009, and show the international community that he plans to take genuine and real action on autism."
