Autism Votes

Working together we can, and will, obtain autism insurance reform equality for the state of New York.  If we work hard, we can get this done THIS YEAR so that you are reimbursed for medical expenses!  Otherwise, your hard earned money will continue to fly out the door for both health insurance premiums and therapy payments.  For more information on the legislation in New York, visit www.autismvotes.org/NewYork.

Special Needs Kids fair

Sociable Kidz hosted a special needs kids fair yesterday which we participated in.  The fair raised over $1200 for the Tourett Syndrome Association New York Hudson Vally Chapter!!!  Sociable Kidz is a wonderful organization that teaches children how to grow socially with their peers and within their communities.  Their were a lot of amazing participants and organizations that work with children with special needs in a variety of ways at the fair.  The kids all had a great time.  See the side bar for a list of some of the organizations that you might find helpful.
