Thanks to Michael and Chris Presti, whose efforts in 12 Hours for Autism, a fundraiser for FACES 4 Autism brought in listeners and donations from all over the world in a 12 hour span!  Thank you so much for your support.  http://www.neueregelradio.com/DJ_page.html

Autism Speaks has done a good job creating awareness about autism in the last few years.  They have donation campaigns in many local stores, and are asking people 
to donate to research for autism.  We would like to ask people to be aware of the local movements to create 
autism awareness as well as support of your neighbors here in Atlantic, Cape May, Cumberland and Ocean Counties.

We want people to know that there are many good local organizations in their own backyards doing their best to bring education and support programs to our growing autism community here in New Jersey.  

Above, you will see a flyer which spotlights the collaboration of Bubbles 4 Autism, a local New Jersey initiative since 2002, and Autism Bubble Day, a UK effort launched this year.  We are now truly an international effort dedicated to raising autism awareness in the schools, businesses and hearts of our communities.  We have the support of hundreds of autism organizations, including the World Autism Organisation, Autism New Jersey and the Autism Society of America.  

The United Way of Atlantic County supports agencies in their region who help people experiencing autism, 
including the Arc of Atlantic County, Atlantic Cape Family Service Organization, Jewish Family Services and FACES 4 Autism.  
The impact of autism throughout the lifespan requires a myriad of services from various sources, so having non-profits such 
as these to help with navigating the system is crucial.  

As far as Autism Awareness Month is concerned, we are proud of our community partners all over the region who support FACES 4 Autism in so many ways.  
We have a growing list of activities for autism’s spotlight month, and continue them all year long. 
 We need people to see that our non-profits run-on the funding given by generous people in our community.  
We are not funded by the government grants.  Our members, 500 families over the region, need your support and help to
 ensure that their children grow up to hold meaningful jobs in the area, live in safe homes, and are important members 
of their community.  We can make all of this happen with support.  


This is what we are asking of our Facebook fans today…
April 1st is Monday. 
Do something bold on April Fool’s Day! Donate to your LOCAL autism organization. Not a big non-profit. 
Ask for a 501 C 3! Look them up, and send them your dollars. All of the donations given to our local autism organization, 
FACES 4 Autism are used to help local families facing autism every day. We know them, live with them, work with them, 
and make a difference in their lives. 
They make a difference in our communities. 

So don’t be a fool! 
Ask around about your local organizations this year, and let them know how happy you are to have them around. 
Most of them are run by parents and teachers in your communities. 

If you would like to know more about these local organizations, please contact me at bubbles4autism@yahoo.com

The Arc of Atlantic County, ACFSO, 21 Down, PACT, POAC, 2 Moms, Autism Family Services, United Way Agencies, 
and FACES 4 Autism is just the beginning of a short list!

Thanks so much for your help!

THE “R” Word Campaign featuring Sandman Elementary School Students and FACES 4 Autism’s Lisa Bryant


Bucks County College is one of the over 313 Schools and Businesses who Blow Bubbles 4 Autism each year. Join us!


Jacob Seeger entertains the crowd at the ENA Fundraiser for Autism NJ and FACES 4 Autism. Check out the link for the 4th annual event, where he performs a concert of four songs.

FACES Autism Support Network helps others see the awesomeness in autism awareness.  As we celebrate our TENTH year as a non-profit organization, we have simplified our name to FACES 4 AUTISM.

We will still offer our original keystones of excellence: 

EDUCATION AND SUPPORT, and will continue to bring Autism Awareness to those around the world.  Our mission of education and support will be finished when we have made sure that EVERYONE can “ALWAYS PRESUME INTELLECT” (as author William Stillman would say) and be a friend to those who are different from themselves.  Kindness is a commodity which can increase with practice and also can be shared without risk of losing it!  So please Be a friend to autism!

 

We started Blow Bubbles 4 Autism in 2004, and now bubbles cover the globe each April to make a difference, one child at a time. Each bubble symbolizes the support and compassion of those who educate, befriend and love people with ASD. 

Many of you joined us on April 26th, and people all over the world made a difference.  Check out our Blow Bubbles 4 Autism page on Facebook, too!

 

One in 49 children is affected by autism in New Jersey.
One in 88 in the USA, and 70 are boys.

 

 

There are three distinctive behaviors that characterize autism spectrum disorders. Children have difficulties with social interaction, problems with verbal and nonverbal communication, repetitive behaviors or narrow, obsessive interests. These behaviors can range in impact from mild to disabling. Autism Spectrum Disorders vary widely in severity and symptoms and may go unrecognized, especially in mildly-affected children or when it is masked by more debilitating conditions.


*AUTISM OCCURRENCE:

One in every 88 children has autism (Source: American Academy Pediatrics Report). It is estimated that approximately one million individuals in the U.S. have autism. (Note: This number does NOT include: PDD, Asperger’s and other spectrum disorders.) These statistics are endorsed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), American Academy of Pediatrics, and other federal agencies.

Please note: Since FACES is a support group for families in the autism community and not a professional agency, the information presented through FACES, either at meetings or through emails or in print, should not be construed as professional advice of any kind.  Always consult people trained in their respective fields when seeking this sort of advice.
