Are Michigan residents unhappy about local autism resources?
Autism Speaks, the nation's largest autism science and advocacy organization published a survey taken by over 800 people who had a child with autism of the 10 best places to live with autism. The winner was New York City, closely followed by Los Angeles, Milwaukee, Cleveland and Boston.
Also included in the survey was a list of the communities unhappy about the lack of local autism resources. Michigan was included in the list of communities unhappy with the autism resources and services provided.
If you live in Michigan and have a child are a family member who has autism we would like to hear your opinion.
