HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- April is Autism Awareness Month, and our ABC13 Who's Hiring job fair with Workforce Solutions featured guests sharing advice and different services available to help people with autism find jobs.

The CDC said one in 36 children are diagnosed with autism. Later in life, it can impact people looking for jobs because people with autism are impacted by things such as light and sound.

On Thursday, we explored what employers are doing to work with people with autism. We had someone from Peak Performers, and Texas Workforce Commission vocational rehabilitation services join us on the stream.
If you're looking for a job, we included several immediate hire positions in industries like warehousing, welding, and automotive.
