Hello everybody! I am a parent of a 16 year old son with autism and a Masters Social Work student. I am writing to tell you about a research study I am conducting for my Advanced Graduate Social Work Project. I really need your help!

The purpose of this study is to measure the resources available for children on the autism spectrum. The information collected will help me to determine what resources parents are aware of.

I am looking for parents of children on the autism spectrum. Participation would involve your completion of a questionnaire, which contains 7 questions. The questionnaire will be emailed to you and then you can just email it right back to me after you complete it.

Your participation would help me to complete my research project for this class in an area that I am interested in working in after I complete school and would be deeply appreciated. Group results will be made available. No individual results will be shared. Your name or email address will not be used, as this is only group data that will be reported.

Please reply to this if you are interested in helping me out. I would REALLLLLLY appreciate it!! !! !! My thesis is due in July and I need as many people as possible to complete the questionnaire quickly. Thank you in advance for considering this request.

Sincerely,
Dawn L. Tedrow

My son just turned seventeen and was diagnosed with AS at the tender age of seven. I'd be glad to help you out; PM or email me.

Is this research specific to a particular country, or just global?

The research is not specific to any particular country. Does not matter how old the child is.
Thank you,
Dawn

Hi everybody! I just wanted to let you know that if you replied to this that you would like to participate and have not heard from me - it's because I don't have your email address. Please email me at [email protected] and I will send the questionnaire to you. Thanks! Dawn
