Volunteers Needed for Autism Walk LA

ARI supporters needed to help with event to fund treatment research

Your help is needed immediately to make the inaugural Autism Walk LA -

set for 8 a.m. Sat. Nov. 10 at Exposition Park near USC - a success

for families living with autism. The Autism Research Institute's

proceeds from the walk will fund research that has direct implications

for helping autistic children and adults alive today. Last year, ARI

funded $500,000 in research for effective treatments. This year we are

working to double this - funding more than $1 million.

Please join us in doing whatever it takes to reach this goal and move

us closer to Dr. Rimland's dream to Defeat Autism Now!
