News and Notes

The New York Times writes about the Asperger's syndrome debate

" Asperger's syndrome has entered the popular culture, " writes Wallis in

The New York Times on November 3, " but as a label, experts say it is vague and

confusing. " Read the entire article on the NYT website.

On November 9, Simon Baron-Cohen wrote in The Times about some experts who are

charged with revising the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders

who are " causing consternation by considering removing Asperger's syndrome from

the next edition, scheduled to appear in 2012. The committee argues that the

syndrome should be deleted because there is no clear separation between it and

its close neighbor, autism. " Read his op-ed in its entirety on the NYT Web site.

Local FUNdraisers, Awareness Events & Seminars!

You know you want to do something in your community to raise funds and public

awareness about autism, but deciding on what to do can be confusing. At

Generation Rescue, our FUNdraising program is geared to the individual. Do you

have a great idea -- a fashion show, a baseball game, a bake sale? -- turn it

into a fundraiser for Generation Rescue. FUNdraising is fun and easy to do. No

idea is too large or too small. Raise money for autism and awareness within your

local community at the same time. Get started today! Contact GR's development

coordinator, Herman, at emily.herman@....
