Autism rates rise! We need your help!

A study published Monday in the journal Pediatrics indicates about 1 percent of children ages 3 to 17 have autism or a related disorder, an increase over previous estimates.
The rate of autism among children is now 1 in 100, up from the 2003 study where it was 1 in 150.

Just when it seems like we are spreading awareness, and raising money for research about autism, hoping to get ahead of this disorder, we get this alarming news! It is now more than ever these children need our help! It is time to make a BIG difference in a child’s life.
