Marc and Susan will have to work together to meets James's needs along with creating a parenting style that works for the entire family. The Growing Minds program will help Marc and Susan transition into a parenting style that is suitable for James and is doable in a military family. This program will help alleviate the tension between Marc and James and Marc and Susan because they will learn how to handle the gaming situation better and will think of new activities for James to do. Autism Speaks will connect the family with others and create a support system in times of need. This is a great program to use as a resource when Marc and Susan are unsure of what Autism fully entails or when they need a moral boost from the walks. Lastly, the summer camp will help James break out of his comfort zone of gaming and into a facility that is full of physical activity. The camp will help him feel more confident and he will be able to interact with others in a social environment. Our hopes from the camp is that he will be able to find an activity he enjoys but is also good for him such as

A significant increase in the prevalence of autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) has been observed over the past decade. Specifically, the prevalence has increased from 1 in 110 children to 1 in 88. The 2011 Interagency Autism Coordinating Committee (IACC) described the increase in prevalence of ASDs as a national medical emergency. To address this emergency, the IACC developed a strategic plan. Successful implementation of the plan could improve the quality of life of children with ASDs and their families. Evaluation of cost-effectiveness of evidence-based services is one of the long-term objectives in the IACC strategic plan, and this proposal addresses it. According to PA-10-159 entitled Research on Autism and Autism Spectrum Disorders (R03),

The author of “Autism Is a Serious Public Health Crisis”, Anne Dachel, is among other things a former school teacher and an established advocate for autism awareness. She is also the parent of a child who was diagnosed with autism in the early 90’s. This article focuses primarily on what Dachel has titled “the really big lie” and the economical results that an aging population of autistic children will have on the nation. According to Dachel the “big lie” being told is that the increased number of children being diagnosed with autism is as a result of better diagnosing abilities and higher awareness. Dachel expresses her belief that the CDC, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, is actually making these false claims as to why numbers are increasing in order to cover up the truth behind why autism numbers are on the rise and the CDC involvement in the cause.

(p.1387) Reported as well is that substantial resources are spent providing treatment to children in families who have been diagnosed with autism and specifically stated is that the resources needed are "significantly more than for other children neuropsychiatric and developmental disorders."

This summer I was given the amazing opportunity to be a camp counselor. At first, I was hesitant because I wanted to spend my summer having fun. I thought about it a lot and soon realized that the opportunity was a dream come true. I had always wanted to have a group of little girls who loved me and thought I was the coolest person ever. My summer was absolutely perfect. Three things that made my summer perfect were my kids, my job, and my memories.

For patients with chronic conditions, costs, even with insurance, can add up very quickly with numerous doctor’s visits, emergency room visits, and hospital admissions. The CDC (2016), states, “Treating people with chronic diseases accounts for 86% of the nation’s health care costs” (Center of Disease Control and Prevention, 2016). Despite the amount of time and money spent preventing and treating

Creativity is one key aspect of an artist and I strongly agree with Jacob's point that based on the innovation of David Smith, the Cubi XIX was created. Considering Smith's Cubi XIX, I would also mention that a great deal of technical skill was applied. Smith's technical skill was able to combines three geometric figures including cuboid, cube, and a disk that created the Cubic XIX with an angle. Taking into consideration the composition of the artwork, it can be deduced that David Smith took much time to create such a great three dimensional artistic work that is more realistic and have a unique message for viewers.

Tens of millions of people have been diagnosed with Autism worldwide, effecting both genders, all races, ethnicities and people from all socioeconomic classes. In 2010 a Surveillance Summary was conducted in the United States, where it identified that one in 68 children are diagnosed with Autism (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2014).
