Dear Friends of ARI,

 

I am truly angry at what is happening to our autistic children, and I fully

intend to take corrective action that will make a real difference. I have in

fact already started to do so, but I need your help.

 

Please read my enclosed Congressional Testimony, prepared at the invitation of

Representative Dan Burton, who has an autistic grandson. " Autism Is Treatable "

is the title of my testimony, and I mean it. I don't mean that we already know

how to mainstream every autistic child. I mean that literally thousands of

parents of formerly autistic children have contacted the Autism Research

Institute to thank us for our help in bringing about their child's recovery. It

is true, and I can and will prove it is true by inviting the media to meet the

parents, the recovered children, and the advanced doctors who have made such a

huge difference in the lives of these children.

 

Why am I angry? Because the government, the medical establishment, the media and

even the major million-dollar autism organizations insist that there is at

present no effective biomedical treatment for autism. THEY ARE WRONG!

 

Who are " They " ? Just the National Institutes of Health, the FDA, the Autism

Society of America (which I founded!), the National Alliance for Autism Research

(NAAR), and the Cure Autism Now (CAN) Foundation, as well as Newsweek, The New

York Times and The New Yorker, to name a few organizations which have recently

said that autism is untreatable. Their negative attitude dooms the children to

lives blighted by autism.

 

Because of our success, our Defeat Autism Now! (DAN!) project is growing at a

spectacular rate. Doctors – and soon nurses – who attend our DAN! conferences

are granted Continuing Medical Education Units from a highly respected medical

school. Our formerly once-a-year major DAN! conferences are now given twice a

year in major cities, and we present mini-DAN! conferences in smaller cities.

 

The Autism Research Institute sponsors Think Tanks, where top-notch scientists

and physicians can exchange ideas. We sponsor research projects that will help

autistic children now, not decades from now.

 

We plan to continue to help autistic individuals, their families, their doctors

and research scientists.

 

Early in 2004 we start our media campaign: " Autism Is Treatable! " with a press

release inviting the media to see the recovered children, and to talk with their

enthusiastic parents, their teachers, and their doctors. We will get the word

out, telling the truth, and thus greatly improve the chances for recovery for

autistic children. Parents and physicians are eagerly volunteering to help. Our

Autism Is Treatable.com website will open soon.

 

Your help in the past has made a big difference to us and to thousands of

autistic children world-wide. (We do not apply for government funds because we

value our freedom.)

 

Please continue your help with a generous tax-deductible contribution. You can

make a donation using Pay Pal or by mail or fax.

 

 

Cordially,

 

Bernard Rimland, Ph.D.

P.S. Many of you are way ahead of us! Thank you, very much, for your year-end

donation, if you have already sent one!
