Autism can affect anyone – a family member, a neighbor, a co-worker or a friend. In the United States, the diagnosis rates for Autism are increasing dramatically, with the state of New Jersey leading the way at 1 of every 94 persons being diagnosed with the disorder.
Despite this alarming statistic, Autism and other disorders on the “spectrum” have received very little exposure within mainstream society. Autism has become the leading disorder affecting children in the U.S., spurring a plethora of resources to be dedicated toward research of the disease and treatment for individuals and families affected by the illness.
