The center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates autism's prevalence as 1 in 68 children in the United States. This includes 1 in 42 boys and 1 in 189 girls.
Around one third of people with autism remain nonverbal
Around one third of people with autism have an intellectual disability
Certain medical and mental health issues frequently accompany autism; including gastrointestinal (GI) disorders, seizures, sleep disturbances, attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), anxiety and phobias
Some of our members and close friends have family and loved ones who deal with these issues at a constant that others of us could not understand. The desire for organizations such as Autism Speaks to continue in their research and assisting in helping our family of humanity is growing. WE as a Society are learning as this crazy ass world becomes increasingly difficult to function through, that We Do take for granted the Simple things in life because we don't realize (for some) its not just getting through the day as just getting to the next moment.
The "Want to help" feeling is growing at a wonderful pace and the organizations that can help are doing better With Our Help so We Can't Slow down Now!
I said earlier some MadSplatter members and friends who are directly impacted by Autism have and are receiving assistance ; we have found ourselves in a position to be able to give some back!
