Do you know someone who has Autism Spectrum Disorder? A friend, a neighbor, a sibling, or maybe your own child? According to the CDC (Center for Disease Control), "there are 24,000 new cases of Autism diagnosed in the U.S. every year"(1) and it is considered "the fastest-growing developmental disability in the U.S. today"!(1) Those are a shocking statistics!!! Yet "Autism receives less than 5% of the research funding of many less prevalent
childhood diseases."(1) According to the National Cancer Institute, "autism is more common than childhood cancer", affecting "2 to 6 children out of every 1,000"(2) with "males being 4 times more likely to have some form of autism than females."(2)
