For the second time, organizers will be lighting the courthouse blue for autism. Linden resident, Shirley Baker will have a short program on the courthouse steps at 7 p.m. Tuesday, April 2 in an effort to bring awareness to autism.
Baker knows firsthand the challenges a parent faces in raising a child with disabilities. She also knows there are more resources available then there were more than 20 years ago when her son was diagnosed with autism and intellectual disabilities.
