Multicultural radio network Fairchild Radio Group, with its local operations in Vancouver, Calgary and Toronto, becomes a vocal advocate of autism awareness and creates a month long campaign in October to inform and inspire its Chinese speaking listeners about autism. A series of interviews, forums and educational segments are being aired and the DJs and staff in all 3 cities wore blue for a day to commemorate this meaningful event.

加拿大中文電台集團「晴天行動」，關懷自閉症兒童！在 10 月份，本台位於溫哥華（AM1470 & FM961）、卡加利（FM947）和多倫多（AM1430 & FM889）的電台播出了一系列自閉症的專題節目，並舉辦了多項特別活動，詳情請瀏覽各電台網頁。

Fairchild Radio’s Vancouver operation took advantage of its location in a busy mall to set up a booth selling fundraising items such as souvenir pens for $2.5 each.  Within four hours, the radio station successfully raised over $1,600 to benefit Autism Speaks Canada and created a lot of buzz on the social media.

溫哥華在 10 月 21 日於列治文時代坊舉行慈善義賣，為自閉症的研究和受影響的家庭籌募經費。

Calgary took a “hands on” approach to autism awareness. DJs and staff drew a painting with their bare hands.  They covered the palms of their hands with blue paint and drew a large heart in blue, the color of Autism Speaks Canada’s logo, to pledge their support to families affected by autism.

When Fairchild Radio Toronto made announcement of its lineup of autism discussion, they immediately received phone calls from brave parents raising children with autism, volunteering to share their joy and pain in this long and lonely road.  It is exactly this kind of personal story that touches people’s heart, and brings light to a rather mysterious condition such as autism.

多倫多加拿大中文電台的同事除了製作專題訪問，還齊齊身穿藍衣，提醒聽眾正視自閉症。

Autism is a less talked about neurodevelopmental disorder.  Many parents who have children with autism avoid talking about it, fearing their children will be labeled and stereotyped. But in reality, autism or autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is very common and affecting people of all ethnic backgrounds around the world. According to the data of Autism Speaks, the U.S. headquarter of Autism Speaks Canada, 1 in every 68 children in the United States is diagnosed with ASD and the number is on the rise.  In the past 40 years, the number has increased 10 times, and in the last 10 years alone, the number has doubled.
