Autism Speaks - Walk Now for Autism 11/14/2009 At the Santa Barbara Zoo. Walk Now for Autism is a family-friendly event so bring the whole family along. There are activities for the children, resources for families, light refreshments and entertainment. Money raised through Walk Now for Autism ensures that Autism Speaks can provide funding for research, awareness, advocacy and family services. Without the dollars raised through the Walk Now for Autism events and other Autism Speaks fundraising initiatives held across the continent, Autism Speaks would not be able to fulfill its mission.
