Thanks kindly to these celebs for stepping up to help families affected by autism. Have worked with ASD children x 10 years - endearing, intelligent, earnest youngsters eager to be part of the world in their own way. Have seen many, many of these children blossom with good interventions. These tools are mostly not paid for by regular insurance networks, and families are struggling. The funds are needed, the tools are there, we can turn this around - it is going to take tons of teamwork and courage. And money! thanks again to all involved w/this event.
