South Jersey Mom article on Autism

When I went to drop off my daughter at school today they had the complimentary South Jersey Mom Magazines and on the front cover was the well known ribbon with the title Diagnosis Autism. I decided to grab the issue and wanted to share some interesting topics that the article covered. It discusses how New Jersey is a leader in providing services to autistic children and their families and it gives different local support groups and private intervention program here in South Jersey. The rest of the article was on the characteristics and personal stories of families of children with autism, but I figured since April is Autism Awareness month my support would be to extend the word of these groups and interventions
