On September 25th, President Bush signed the ADA Amendments Act into law. This important legislation broadens protections for people with disabilities and restores the intent of the original Americans With Disabilities Act.

Polly

Polly I am working on a 5-6 minute informative speech on Autism/Aspergers Syndrome, any helpful information would be appreciated. There is so much info out there and its going to be hard to narrow it down. My 8 year old nephew has Aspergers so he is my inspiration for my 1st speech (Artifact Speech) in which I brought a picture of him in and told my class what he means to me and my family. He is our golden boy and I am his "Uncle" Polly. He spent a couple of years at the E.S. Rehab here in Evansville - awesome place!
