National Autism Association

National Autism Association

Listen to Wendy Fournier, President of the National Autism Association. The mission of the National Autism Association is to respond to the most urgent needs of the autism community, providing real help and hope so that all affected can reach their full potential. With greater autism numbers comes greater need for services. Unfortunately, most insurance plans do not cover autism services. NAA’s Helping Hand Program was developed as a financial aid tool for families that need it most. The program helps qualified families pay for medical and therapy services used to treat adults and children diagnosed with autism. Wandering, elopement, safety education for parents and teachers is paramount to the organizaion. Protecting from abuse of Restraint and Seclusion will also be discussed.
