IAN, the Interactive Autism Network, is an innovative online
project
designed to accelerate the pace of autism research by linking
researchers
and families. Anyone impacted by an Autism Spectrum Disorder
(ASD) can
become part of IAN's online community to stay informed about
autism
research, provide feedback, and make their voices heard.
In addition, families of children with an ASD can share
information in a
secure online setting and become part of the nation's largest
online
research effort. As a result, researchers will obtain valuable
data, explain
findings, and collaborate with families and one another. This
dynamic
exchange could lead to new discoveries about causes, diagnosis,
treatments,
and a possible cure for this puzzling group of disorders.

This link goes directly to a page that provides visual sequences
on the
computer for toothbrushing, doing laundry, healthy living, safety
in the
home and more!!! You or your child can click on the hand to go to
the next
page! FYI- the 'anti-social behavior' social story talks about
street crime
etc so most likely this is not appropriate for your children.
Also, the
election social story is from 2005 and 'Live8' is about reducing
poverty in
Africa. This might not be something your children can comprehend,
but if so
that is great!
