Autism and the New Law: Resources for Treatment

Anthony Edwards, star of television's ER series, hosts this program that reviews new laws designed to benefit children afflicted with autism as their parents seek medical care and treatment for them. Autism is a baffling disorder that severely inhibits a child's ability to meaningfully interact with his or her environment. Different segments of the program focus on the Advancement of Pediatric Autism Research Act and how doctors are currently screening, diagnosing, and treating those with this disorder. ~ Elizabeth Smith, All Movie Guide
