Featured Supporter: The Listening Program by Advanced Brain Technologies




My son is good with the headphones. Although he never had any trouble going to bed, he seems to fall asleep much faster since we started The Listening Program. He usually listens right before bedtime. He will listen to the whole thing but he keeps asking to be done and listen to different kind of music. It's a little challenging because he's not used to this kind of music. I have started playing Beethoven in the house to help him get used to the sound. Personally, I enjoy the relaxing music.

The Listening Program® (TLP) is a music listening therapy, that provides engaging brain stimulation to improve performance in school, work and life.

Dear Friends,


The article in last week's Wall Street Journal titled Autism Linked to Environmental Factors was an acknowledgement by the mainstream media that the environment is a contributing factor in the ever-increasing rates of children affected with autism. The international conference held in Spain discussed environmental triggers and a prevention treatment utilizing iron supplements. Clearly, this is something our community has known for some time, however, it is a reminder that autism is a journey. The world of research and science takes many years, if not decades to scientifically validate what society may already know. This reminds me that each families' journey with autism is unique and different. The path to recovery takes many twists and turns and looks different but we all have to stay focused, motivated, vocal and above all celebrate the milestones of improvement.

This month I want to share with you Generation Rescue's MAJOR milestone. Over the past few years we have funded 400 families with medical treatment grants to put them on the path to recovery. Our grant program provides beginner families with the tools necessary to achieve new milestones, hear words for the first time and see social interaction. The recent Rescue Our Angels event raised $200,000 for these medical treatment grants and our goal is to raise $1 million by the end of the year, so another 400 families can celebrate new milestones on the path to recovery.

I hope you will read about and view the pictures from our event in this recap article. Please join me in celebrating the opportunity these families and many more will have to receive treatment that changes lives while we continue on this journey.

Sincerely,
Candace McDonald

Apply for the Rescue Family Grant

When a parent hears the words "your child has autism," everything changes. Generation Rescue is here for that change and the many more to come throughout their lifetime. Many individuals with autism suffer from treatable conditions like gut issues, sleep disorders and mitochondrial dysfunction which directly impact speech development, behavior and focus. Our grant program provides the opportunity to pursue treating these underlying symptoms of autism.

We understand that financial costs is often times the prohibitive reason from pursuing treatment, therefore, our grant program is available to individuals of ALL ages with an economic need.

To learn more about the grant program and to start your application today, visit our website and read the testimonials below to see how our grants are making a difference in the lives of families affected by autism today!

Less than a month starting biomedical treatment, the Generation Rescue grant recipients are making amazing progress!

 


 

Paxton's teachers were thrilled today when I came to pick him up from school. They said it was the best day he's had in a long time. Paxton's expressive and receptive language is just taking off. He is able to express anything he wants. We're over the moon! Seeing these positive changes makes us so grateful for this opportunity.

 

-- Valerie, Mom to Paxton

Embracing Change, Growth, and Soggy Books

"It's been a very hectic couple of months for me. Hectic good. Not the bad kind of hectic. You know, the kind where I plunk myself down on the bathroom floor in a heap of exhaustion and weep kind of hectic that used to be my status quo in my previous life as a mother of two daughters with autism. Thankfully, those days are long gone."
