Presentation Transcript

  1. Better place project Bake Sale – April 2, 2014 CSD LC2

  2. Autism Speaks Is an autism advocacy organization in the United States that sponsors Autism research and conducts awareness and outreach activities aimed at families, governments and the public.

  3. Autism awareness  Autism affects 1 in 88 children and costs a family $60,000 a year on average. It is also the fastest-growing serious developmental disability in the U.S but receives less than 5% of the research funding of many less prevalent childhood diseases. Speech Language Pathologists work directly with those who have Autism to help improve their communicative and overall social skills.

  4. Who are we? A learning community of Communication Sciences and Disorders majors looking to make a difference.
