Financial Burdens Weigh Heavy on Families with Autistic Children

PLEASE SUPPORT MY AUTISM FAMILY CENTER!!!

I have a deep love and passion for working with children & adolescents with Autism. Over the last 11 years, I have spent countless hours dedicating myself to several children and their families. After working in a variety of settings, I noticed a common trend between conventional therapeutic modalities that I found problematic. Most programs for children with autism only focused on the child with the diagnosis, ignoring an essential dynamic of the child’s life: their family.

Check out Polly Tommey's Autism Awareness Campaign 2010 on Facebook and follow Polly on Twitter

From Polly: The 'Hello Boys' billboards go up on Monday (actually they are digital, so I imagine a button is just pushed) The 'Boys' are Gordon Brown, David Cameron and Nick Clegg. Since The News of The World released the image it has already become 'of interest' to the press. We are firmly sticking to Monday as the launch day and I am on GMTV that morning and LK Today. As far as our 3 Boys go, they have all had letters explaining the campaign and what we are expecting from them. People are sending to polly@autismfile.com what they would have to do to win our autism vote.
