Latest Autism Stats (Did you know this about autism #11)

Doug works at Wynn Resort

New picture of Doug who works full time at the Wynn Las Vegas on the Las Vegas Strip.

This is new as of today, October 5th, 2009, an released by the Autism Society of America”

According to the Department of Health and Human Services National Survey of Children’s Health, 1 out of every 91 children – 1% of American kids today – has an autism spectrum disorder.

That’s up from 1 child in every 150, jut a few years ago in 2007…

And if that’s not shocking enough, these statistics don’t even include adult prevalence or those children who remain undiagnosed — a still too common occurrence.

I was shocked when I read that on a fresh E mail this morning. We must all work together. We must all pray together. We will find a solution together.
