Autism, or autism spectrum disorder, is typically diagnosed in children by about age five in the U.S., according to the National Autism Data Center. About 1 in 36 American children are affected by autism, up from 1 in 44 from previous data.

April is Autism Awareness Month. But at Zoe’s Just Dezzerts in Baltimore’s Federal Hill neighborhood, autism awareness is part of every day. We visit with Zoe, her mom, Jennifer Goldschmidt, and Kelsey Parker, another employee.

Then Taya Dunn Johnson, from the Autism Society of Baltimore-Chesapeake, tells us about the resources the non-profit provides for people with autism and their families.

Links: Zoe's Just Dezzerts events, Autism Society of Baltimore-Chesapeake, Awareness event Sat. April 27, and Making Autism Work on Sun. April 28th at Coppin State geared toward helping autistic adults navigate job searches, resume building, mock interviews.

Twelve mattresses are arranged in a circle. Drawn on beds’ white fabric are the outlines of sleeping children. Their hands are curled up by their peaceful faces.

That tranquility is betrayed by the title of the installation: "Dream Refuge for children imprisoned." It is on display through May 18th at the Asian Arts & Culture Center at Towson University. 

Creator Na Omi Shintani founded the Kitsune Community Art Studio in Half Moon Bay and is a teaching artist at Creativity Explored for Disabled Adults and FootHill College.

In honor of WYPR’s Spring pledge, we’re offering up not one but two stoop stories today. First, a stoop story by Rohaizad Suaidi about fierce love, sacrifice, and pledging support for an adopted country.

Then we hear from Gretchen and Warren Hensel, about persistence, timing, and pledging your heart to someone before it’s too late!
