More children will be diagnosed with autism this year than with
AIDS, cancer, and diabetes combined. Yet the amount of
private funding for autism is less than 2% of that for
better-known childhood diseases. Dogs For Autism believes
this is a crisis situation. The time to help is NOW.
In 2007 we decided to focus our program's broad training
experience on increasing the use of service dogs for children
with autism. Circumstances and needs of each child vary
widely--but well chosen and well trained dogs are extremely
flexible! At Dogs For Autism, we believe parents, educators,
and clinicians need more tools (and need them quickly) to
maximize the potential of children with autism. Our dogs are
proving they can make a difference.
