WhatzUP? with Autism
Ball State University instructor John Girton along with a willing BSU student want to know Whatz Up! with Autism. Whatz Up! is a GET NOTICED ring tone that is sure to turn heads. When you download and enable this $1 ringtone, you and your cell phone will not only turn heads, you will raise support and be given the opportunity to share the effects of autism on families across the US. If this ring tone irritates a few people, at least it's for a good cause.
In February 2007, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued their ADDM autism prevalence report. The report, which looked at a sample of 8 year olds in 2000 and 2002, concluded that the prevalence of autism had risen to 1 in every 100 American children, and almost 1 in 94 boys. The issuance of this report caused a media uproar, but the news was not a surprise to the Autism Society or to the 1.5 million Americans living with the effects of autism spectrum disorder. Nonetheless, the spotlight shown on autism as a result of the prevalence increase opens opportunities for the nation to consider how to serve these families facing a lifetime of supports for their children.
