TREACh foundation

Welcome to the TREACh foundation.org.
The TREACh foundation (Therapies Reaching & Educating Autistic CHildren) was established by concerned parents and grandparents to help provide resources and funding for other families of autistic children. We have found that the most useful information we've gained has come through an informal network of parents, grandparents and professionals linking the ever increasing autistic community. To that end, we welcome your comments, as well as any and all information that may benefit those who are continually seeking a greater understanding of this disorder.

	On Monday, Nov. 6th 2006 the TREACh foundation held their 2nd Charity Golf Classic @ the Porter Valley Country Club in Northridge, CA. It was co-chaired by Academy Award nominated actor Don Cheadle and award winning Newsman Dave Clark.

	Karen Lee and Pepper Russell of the TREACh foundation recently participated on a panel "Understanding Autism" on KKBT Radio in Los Angeles. Well known radio personality and community activist, The Poetess, moderated the discussion on her popular "Real Talk" show. Along with TREACh foundation representatives, the panel also included, Bernard Rimland, PH.D of the Autism Research Institute and parent advocate, Lenny Schaeffer of the Schaeffer Newsletter.

	Pepper & Clifford Russell of the TREACh foundation were interviewed by NBC Nightly News for the week-long series, Autism:The Hidden Epidemic? which aired the week of February 21-25 2005.
