My newest submission to Suite 101 is about Autism and Sleep Disorders.  I discussed four ways to help individuals on the autism spectrum have more restful sleep.  The picture is my daughter sleeping under her custom-made weighted blanket.  The weighted blanket has been an absolute lifesaver for us with regards to her sleep habits.

In my Suite 101 Autism/Asperger’s Syndrome Blog I touched on the political scene as it relates to autism.  I discussed a few of the candidates’ plans for autism support should they be elected to the office of the President.  Not all of the candidates are listed as autism-specific information could not be located. 

In non-Suite 101 news I have recently launched two new websites.  The first, The Autism Education Site, is dedicated to providing parents and caregivers a comprehensive list of private schools for educating children, adolescents, and young adults on the autism spectrum as well as a summer camp listing.  In addition, the latest in autism education news is published on The Autism Education Site Blog.

My other project is Autism News Direct - in blog format I post the latest in autism news on a variety of topics.  Whether you are looking for information on autism conferences or press releases about the latest autism-specific scientific study, Autism News Direct will have that information available.
