A friend of mine recently found out her daughter has autism. Knowing I am an Intervention Specialist, she asked me what resources I might be able to hook her up with so that she can begin the self-education process. The first website I referred her to is www.ianproject.org. Operating under the umbrella of Kennedy Krieger Institute, the Ian Project is an astounding community of parents and researchers who are joining together to discover breakthroughs in the field of Autism Spectrum Disorder. This vast resource database is easily and readily accessible. There are a variety of different research studies and support groups families can choose to participate in. If you or someone you know is affected by autism, then I urge you to please share this fabulous resource with them. Step up and choose to be a part of the research that is making the future better and brighter for families with ASD.
