The Mystery of Autism…Searching for Answers.
Autism is alarmingly more prevalent today than just 10 years ago, affecting as many as 1 per 91 individuals.  More children will get this devastating diagnosis this year than AIDS, cancer and diabetes combined. There is no known cause, and there isn’t a cure. Typically detected in early childhood, a new diagnosis is especially devastating for families because, in spite of its numbers, this disorder is so misunderstood.  “Experts” often disagree and parents, family members and friends are faced with a bureaucratic and confusing maze, further hindering their efforts to find much needed assistance and treatment.

We are Dayton Area Families for Effective Autism Treatment (DAFEAT).  We want to combine efforts to piece together a pathway to recovery. We also help to create more public awareness and help others wade through the heartbreak and hope Autism brings.  Help us solve the puzzle of Autism one piece at a time.
