Sorry for the error and any confusion this may cause.

Sincerely,

[kinarkautism] Call for Assistance from the Wynberg Case Families

> The families involved in the Wynberg case are asking for some assistance.

The funding for the lawyers will be depleted at the end of February, which

is when the trial was supposed to end. We now know the trial will not be

completed until the end of April -- that means the lawyers will not be paid

for those two months unless funds are raised. The gov't has recently

applied even further tactics to extend the duration of the case, which the

judge has penalized the gov't lawyers for, however, the costs are mounting

for the families involved and the families are in need of some financial

assistance. The families have taken further efforts to achieve some

fundraising initiatives- they have successfully found a generous donor who

will match any monies they can raise, up to $20,000. The families are

asking that if everyone in the autism community could contribute perhaps up

to $100 each, then their burdens would be drastically lessened. We all face

true financial hardships in dealing with the many costs involved in raising

our kids with ASD, but I am sure that most of us could afford to contribute

$50 or $100 for the Wynberg case. And remember that any monies you can

afford to contribute will be doubled for the families. Also, the decisions

made in this case would affect services for all children in the province, it

is a small contribution to make to achieve such a large goal.
