| Join Hermie's Race for Autism |
Nascar
driver, Hermie Sadler, is making a difference in the lives of over a million of
people with autism, including his own daughter, Halie Dru, by raising autism
awareness. On March 24th Hermie competed in the Winston Cup Series in Bristol,
Tennessee. His car featured the autism awareness ribbon and the ASA's toll-free
number, 800.3.AUTISM.
Why is this so
important?
More than 50 years have passed since autism was first identified. During that half a century, smallpox was wiped out, a vaccine was created to fight polio and the gene for cystic fibrosis was discovered. Yet, we are still far from fully understanding and knowing how to prevent this complex and widely misunderstood disorder. Worse yet, the incidence of autism is on the rise:
The incidence of
autism increases at the astonishing rate of 10-17% annually.
Given the increased
incidence rate, within the next decade autism will become the most prevalent
disability in the United States.
