Guest guest Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 Obama talked about hope for people. Lots of self-advocates online I read were frustrated too. Why not hope for people with autism. I want to find others to help with the disability work industry centered around local communities and working together. Can anyone help but without greedy intentions. http://www.compassionateintegrations.org/autismleadership.mp3 I spent three years so far and it was stressful and bold but I am glad I did it. > > I would like to hear more.

Guest guest Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 I don't like being called an aspie. I do not know what ASAN is either. I am a disability civil rights and employment advocate in Humboldt county California. I create employment and speak my mind. Intolerance is something I don't shy away from. > > > > I would like to hear more.

Guest guest Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 Eeek. Speak for yourself. I don't even know what ASAN is, either. All I can Google is makes soy candles. Can you elaborate on why we should be so hesitant? pam > > > > I would like to hear more.

Guest guest Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 My Social Goals As an (ASAN, I just figured it out) an individual with high functioning autism I have created an employment organization to employ individuals with autism related disabilities and other general developmental disabilities as defined by California Law. Each individual is covered under the civil rights and service act known as the Lanterman Act in California. I'd like to see the rise of the disability work industry on the community level. Currently three others are employed labeling and selling candles under this disability owned organization. I would like others with disabilities such as autism with the help of their service help like I received help to create their own businesses to employ each other in partnership with local business communities. Right now three other product lines for community work are being developed such as bath salt, jewelry and awareness products that are 100% organically disability owned and to employ others with disabilities. I do not sell products online and if when I do a center will stock inventory and do the mail order. I am speaking up so that parents of qualifying individuals can have a similar vision should their children need this structure of employment. I am sponsored by many local radio stations, been in the front pages of two local papers for this project and have alot of support in the community. If anyone serious comes along in my internet journey to spread the good news and would like to talk to a PHD Harvard graduate about me I can sign a release. However that would only be for established non-profit groups helping people with autism and otherwise that may be led by parents or not. I really like to see disability leadership when possible.

Guest guest Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 I don't want to fill up this forum with my words. If people find trust problems with autism leadership in my organization if they truly wanted they could investigate further but instead it may be part of discrimination easily overcome. Few have challenged the leadership and it's style is alien socially. As a activism animal politically any sort of challenges have been (the very few) been sorted with victory politically. I am not concerned personally with anyone no matter whom challenging my organization as all such attempts have resulted in it getting larger. Disability bigotry is handled swiftly and in new ways. As children grow they may choose to be member of this type of employment. In a control group many choose and no one has not chosen to be part of this organization as a person with disabilities. I am perceived as an advocate leader and have even achieved front page articles in my local chamber of commerce. The only thing holding it up is discrimination from people without disabilities at times. In the coming years growth will further enable and working with non-disability owned groups has been proven beneficial. I actually enjoy standing up and doing that which has few times been done before and never been so viable. As far as ASAN advocacy the individual may change his or her mind but ultimately the such in mentality will be if needed entirely politically destroyed. Thanks for the opportunity to post here. I would like to speak to anyone here wanting to talk. Please call 1-888-241-6856 and PRESS 1. For more information please visit http://www.compassionateintegrations.org/about.html .

Guest guest Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 I suppose my only question would be if this is too off topic to be of relevance here. Your message of helping those with disabilities being financially productive is a good one, but we are here to discuss the impact of mercury and other toxins on our bodies in an attempt to get well. We want to treat toxic symptoms of Autism and recover. If you are interested in learning about how you can make yourself healthier, feel free to stay and learn!

Guest guest Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 In idea autism is a different wiring in the brain. However adverse symptoms that manifest as a result of dietary allergies can be deemed beneficial. I really do not like the process of self-diagnosis however my mother said when I was on a special diet I read about I was better. I don't think I personally have a problem with how I am but with services I geto ut of the house and started an advocacy employment company. I don't think there is any cure for difference but to be healthier is always a good thing. Many prone to the alternative cures \ treatments say autism can go away but I understand it as hardwired. Other say autism is an identity such as aspie. Personally i don't like be called a label as a self-reference. The concept and idea of autism is so very generalized and diverse that I don't think from what I have observed all of them can snap out of it and become normal. I think diversity is a beautiful thing and in society we need integrations by means of a general acceptance of diversity. Bottom line stereotype is a business owner may thing he or she will be baby sitting an adult with autism or that some kind of behavioral weirdness (difference but normal) will drive customers away. If diets, toxicity theoretics and applied methodologies of treatment and herbals as well as pills don't make autism go away least people might focus on acceptance and equality as well. I am not severally autistic and I like getting out of the house with the California Lanterman Act. > I suppose my only question would be if this is too off topic to be of relevance here.
