The Foundation for Autism Care, Education and Services (FACES) is a non-profit, 501c3 foundation. FACES is dedicated to raising funds to directly support and promote ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) therapy, education, services and treatment for children with Autism and their families. On February 8, 2007, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released the latest revised prevalence figures for autism. The report indicates that the prevalence of autism is now 1 in 150, up from the 1 in 166 reported in January of 2004. Families can spend over $100,000 per year for a child with autism. Most insurance companies do not cover these costs or early intervention or specialized programs. |
