Autism is an epidemic. Department of Education and Military statistics both demonstrate that Autism is impacting 1 in every 67 children in the United States. Millions of dollars are being spent on Autism Research, but very few dollars on the treatment and education of children with Autism. Until a cure for Autism is found, the MOST EFFECTIVE WAY to help these children is with proper treatment and services.
