Families Coping with Autism

This sounded interesting.. please feel free to pass this along. I got this from the Marcus Institute.

LOOKING FOR FAMILIES COPING WITH AUTISM
Do you have a child with autism or PDD who is 6-12 years old? We are conducting a study that will examine how families who have a school-age child with autism are coping. The data will be collected through a survey that is mailed to the family. Families will receive $10 after returning the survey. There is a lack of research on the impact of autism in diverse groups, and therefore we are especially interested in recruiting families who will provide racial, ethnic, economic, and religious diversity. This study is affiliated with the Clinical Graduate Program of the Psychology Department at the University of Massachusetts at Boston. If you are interested in participating or would like more information, please contact Meg Manning at margaret.manning001@umb.edu or (617) 287-6318.
