Objective:
Autism Sunday is the International Day of Prayer for Autism and Asperger's Syndrome. The day is observed on the second Sunday in February.

Cathedrals, Churches and religious organisations mark Autism Sunday to remember over 60 million people with autism and Asperger's Syndrome around the world.

Autism Sunday was launched in 2002 in the United Kingdom by parents and carers Ivan and Charika Corea who have a son with autism, Charin. Autism Sunday was launched with a historic service at St.Paul's Cathedral in London. It is now celebrated all around the world. The organisers are urging people to use Autism Sunday to lobby and campaign over the serious issues concerned with autism and Asperger's Syndrome.
