I hate to be a bother, but I’ve recently been in contact with an old acquaintance’s sister who tutors autistic children. She is having difficulty in finding resources. Would it be too great a trouble if I put her into contact with you? Thank you.

Hi Chris
Of course she can although I have no idea how I’d be able to help.
Which country is she in?
There are great resources in The States… http://www.autismspeaks.org/?utm_source=autismspeaks.org&utm_medium=web&utm_campaign=primarymenu
And UK http://www.nhs.uk/conditions/autistic-spectrum-disorder/Pages/Introduction.aspx
Our own national association here http://www.autismsouthafrica.org/
All our full of interesting advice, free downloads and give details of support groups in local areas.
Her local hospital and/or university should also provide loads of free stuff.
Keep me posted
Hello Soutie,
she’s Australian.
I will send her the links, thank you!

Autism covers such a wide spectrum of need, from high functioning Apsergers to severely disabled… maybe part of the problem is getting the right level of input for need?
And locally this group has been excellent

Thank you, Pseu!
