Cover story KATU news, Portland: "House bill to help cover costs of Autism "

Broadcast Wed. May 5, 2009 during the 4PM news broadcast
at KATU, Channel 2, Portland, Oregon

"Oregon has one of the highest rates of children with Autism in the US, yet the state has not been able to pass legislation to help parents with the burden of treating their children. A bill stuck in the house [HB 3000 in the House Rules Committee] right now would force insurance companies to help, and dozens of families are counting on that bill to help ease the financial burden."




Thank you to Lisa and John McHenry for sharing their story and
thank you to KATU for sharing it with the public!
