Activity 2

Website & Printed MaterialsTACA provides print and electronic educational material to help families make the most informed decisions for their children with autism. Due in part to an in-kind donation of $3,500 this year, TACA was able to distribute 3000 Autism Journey Guides and more than 150,000, My Child Has Autism information cards to families. This year TACA introduced our guides for families as a two book series: Early Childhood Development (Volume 1) and the newly created Volume 2 for Maturing Adults. TACA shared over 10,000 updates, support, tips and news through social media outlets: TACAs Yahoo! Group, Facebook, and Twitter. TACAs website received almost 1,000,000 visits by users who accessed over 1.6 million pages information. The TACAnow blog with a record 83 posts (including 20 guest posts from our Physician Advisory board and on staff attorney) had over 130,000 readers.

Activity 3

ScholarshipsTACA provided 50 families with scholarships toward treatment through our Family Scholarship Program, Hawaii Autism Foundation scholarships, Hawaii Autism Foundation vision therapy scholarships, TACA Dr. Rossignol scholarships and TACA Philadelphia Liberty Me Grants. TACA received almost $6,000 of in-kind discounted and donated services to help stretch our scholarship funds to help more families. Through our partnership in AutismCares, TACA and four other national non-profit organizations provided financial assistance to 280 families in crisis.
