autism research survey

Several people reading here either have or know people who have autism diagnoses, so I thought I'd pass along this information in case someone else would like to participate.

An Assistant Professor (of Geography (???)) at Queen's University in Canada is conducting a survey titled:
Autism Online: The Social and Cultural Implications for Individuals on

Are you going to the support group tonight?

Sorry, just saw the message. No, I went to a related event though. AHS does training for therapy animals, and I went tonight to a sort of introductory session for humans. I've read that training service dogs (not just therapy dogs) for specific autistic individuals ends up costing about $15,000, so I've been wondering if there are cheaper (more efficient) ways of getting things done. I just wanted extra background information, so I went to the intro class tonight.
