Help Us Fight The Autism Mystery!Help us at EJ Autism Foundation to "fight the mystery" of autism. Our aim is to increase autism awareness and to raise funds for programs that work with children on the spectrum right here on Long Island, NY. Please join us in our main fundraising events: the Jigsaw 4-Mile Run/Walk held annually in April, or as a fundraiser/participant in the ING NYC 2008 NYC Marathon. All participants and/or contributors ultimately help us improve the quality of life of all affected by autism.Autism is one of the most devastating developmental disorders. If you are someone whose life has been touched by this disorder, autism can be bewildering and disheartening. Affected children may struggle with social interaction, exhibit narrow, obsessive interests or repetitive behaviors, and have problems with verbal and nonverbal communication. These core autism symptoms can range from mild to severe. There is no cure for autism but there is hope. The earlier the intervention, the better, but we can't just stop helping these kids when they age out of kindergarten and beyond. Therapies that target specific signs of autism can achieve substantial improvement. For many children, the signs of autism potentially decrease with age and treatment. In fact, many of these children grow up to lead productive lives. Join us to "fight the mystery" and together we can help the children on the spectrum! We have had this many visitors: Please donate to help us raise funds for Autism research and awareness! *E J Autism Foundation is a 501 (c) (3) charity eligible for matching funds.
