Stacey & Mike's Happy News: Dad Installs Signs To Protect Autistic Kids

A Philadelphia father has been working to protect people with autism by installing street signs with the goal of getting drivers to slow down. 

Residents might notice new signs throughout town that read "autistic person area."

Eric Williams is the man behind the very personal campaign. He's the founder of the project named after his son, who was diagnosed with the disorder at age 3.

The signs are meant to send a message to drivers because a person with autism may cross the street with little warning. 

Eric says he's just getting started. He says he's planning to talk to the city council to get funding so more signs like these can go up and he wants to see one on all four corners of every school in town.
