Early Intervention (EI), B-3 years and Early Childhood Special Education (ECSE), 3-5 years services are available and free to all families who have a child with special needs. These services are federally and stated mandated through IDEIA 2004. Please share with parents that they should contact their state department or local school district to inquire and have children evaluated and services provided for those in need. Great video....there is hope and immediate help available through EI/ECSE services. Thanks, Michael Mahoney EI/ECSE Coordinator Douglas ESD Roseburg, OR

Every child on this earth deserves a chance to have a good life. Many diseases have been cured from research, we need to put 100% behind these children, both physically, mentally and financially. Our prayers with the children who suffer as well as my great nephew.

Raising awareness about autism! My name is Reena Soni, I am a third year BSC Psychology student at the University of East London. I am looking for people who have children with autism to complete an online questionnaire for my final year project (the link is below). If you know anyone, could you please take a moment to forward this email to your friends and family I would be really grateful if you would consider taking part in my study. This study aims to investigate the perception of parents of children with autism using applied behaviour analysis (ABA) compared to parents not using applied behaviour analysis. If you would like to take part please click on the link below. http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/L3MD8KF Thank you!

Autism is a pervasive developmental disorder that needs to be recognized at an early age. Early diagnosis and intervention is the key. I work with many levels of students with Autism. I am so proud of all the parents that act as their child's advocate. No one can best understand what your child is going through. Please continue to push for early diagnosis and intervention. The good news is I have seen so many children come so far in their educational history.

Hello my name is Tamica I have a son that was diagnosed with autism just a few months ago while he talks and can follow directions. I still need to be trained on helping him if anyone can offer any help I will appreciate it. I seen some of you mention ABA what is that and how does it help the child. If anyone read this message my e-mail is jtamica@yahoo.com please feel free to lend your advice at anytime thanks...

i fully agree, but when you have 2 autistic children and NO help, also abroad, husband working a 7-7 job to make sure all bills are paid and that both children get the BEST possible therapy, the option to give them the ABA therapy on a 1 ON 1 intervention which my sister has done, AND YES ITS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE!!!!! is just not an option if you have two autistic children and holding on to dear old PATIENCE !?!? The therapists just cant cope or handle her little boy..... schools dont want to accept him, friends are no longer wanting your little brats over to come and play with their precious little darlings....... so when she said she cannot do the 1 on 1 therapy i UNDERSTOOD......

Not winning the lottery is not unfair. Fair is everybody getting what they NEED.

You don't have to wait for insurance companies to cover basic autism therapy. It is totally possible for parents to train up to do ABA therapy themselves - and to get college students to assist them as a practicum or for a minimum wage. What's vital is time on task, one-on-one intervention and lots of patience. ABA can be done by parents - it is not rocket science!! I know because my husband and I personally worked with our autistic daughter (diagnosed at 3, silent until almost 5) while living abroad with no support from insurance. Now 9, she not only speaks but is mainstreamed in a typical classroom with minimal support. Parents, you have the power - think out of the box and make it work. Don't wait for governments legislation - take the lead, do whatever you can yourself now. I promise you it will make more of a difference to work directly with your child than to put get distracted with advocacy. Hang in there. I wish you well!

To: posted by bord to life on 8/23/09 5:15: PM... What you said is really ridiculous. ANY science endeavor needs FUNDING. So yes, money DOES help. But negative people who do not know what they are talking about, people like you, do not help anything. Why would you even bother making a comment? I have been working for a school district with special needs children for 2 years now. My heart goes out to EVERY parent helping their child struggle with autism.
