Temple Grandin to Keynote at Free Virtual Conference to Help Parents
Irvine, CA, March 24, 2010 -   Sixty families a day receive the devastating news that their child suffers from an autism spectrum disorder.  To help these families  in honor of Autism Awareness month, AutismCollege.com, a new on-line resource for parents and educators, is co-sponsoring a free virtual conference with 16 autism experts over two days on Saturday, April 9th and Sunday April 10th from 8:00 to 5:00 PST.

Temple Grandin, Ph.D., subject of the recent HBO movie, winner of  seven Emmy  awards, will be the keynote speaker on Saturday at the “Get Educated About Autism” conference.  Dr. Grandin  will be discussing “The Basics Every Child Needs to Learn.”

“Due to budget cuts, parents need to educate themselves and to learn practical autism parenting tips ,” explained Chantal Sicile-Kira,  award-winning author  and founder of Autism College. Sicile-Kira’s son, Jeremy, who is non-verbal and severely impacted by autism, was highlighted in the media in June 2010 when he graduated from Torrey Pines High School and gave a commencement speech using voice output technology. “When he was diagnosed, I was told to find a good institution for him.  I was given no hope. That’s why I have devoted my life to providing practical information to parents. Jeremy is now attending MiraCosta College, and is a staff writer on the MiraCosta College newspaper, The Chariot.”
