Temple Grandin Eustacia Cutler Autism Fund

Temple Grandin was just featured on a documentary on PBS. It was great. However let’s clear up one common misconception that continues to be stated when ever they talk about Temples’s early years. When Temple was 2, she was diagnosed with autism. The doctors did NOT recommend that she should be placed in an institution. They recommended speech therapy and a private preschool for children with disabilites. Eustacia Cutler enrolled Temple and also hired a person to help Temple at home. For the accurate story order the book that tells the family story.

TGEC agrees with Dr. Kressly

AAP President Dr. Susan J. Kressly responds to the recent changes on the CDC’s website - “The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website has been changed to promote false information suggesting vaccines cause autism. Since 1998, independent researchers across seven countries have conducted more than 40 high-quality studies involving over 5.6 million people. The conclusion is clear and unambiguous: There’s no link between vaccines and autism. Anyone repeating this harmful myth is misinformed or intentionally trying to mislead parents.

We call on the CDC to stop wasting government resources to amplify false claims that sow doubt in one of the best tools we have to keep children healthy and thriving: routine immunizations. The American Academy of Pediatrics stands with members of the autism community who have asked for support in stopping this rumor from spreading any further."
