MeadWestvaco and Autism Society of America Launch 2008 ASA Autism Awareness Cambridge Planner
Date:3/6/2008

& Office Products. "We know that managing any family's schedule is a daunting task, but in the case of individuals with autism, schedules are particularly busy with therapy, medical appointments, and more. We hope that this planner eases the scheduling burden for these families."

A portion of all proceeds from the sale of the Cambridge 2008 ASA Autism Awareness Planner will benefit ASA's awareness and support programs for families with autism nationwide.

About Autism

Autism is a complex developmental disability that typically appears during the first three years of life and affects a person's ability to communicate and interact with others. Autism is defined by a certain set of behaviors and is a "spectrum disorder" that affects individuals differently and to varying degrees. There is no known single cause for autism, but increased awareness and funding can help families today.

We do this by increasing public awareness about the day-to-day issues faced by people on the spectrum, advocating for appropriate services for individuals across the lifespan, and providing the latest information regarding treatment, education, research and advocacy.
