User blog:Somersetpace/Bullying of Children with ASD from the MA Advocates for Children

 Massachusetts Advocates for Children (MAC) is interested in learning more about the extent of bullying of children on the autism spectrum in Massachusetts. This information will help support the ASD anti-bullying bill, H. 3804 (An Act Addressing Bullying of Children with ASD). We are hoping you will respond to the questions below to help demonstrate the extent of the problem. The information and examples provided from families will be compiled and provided to legislators and other policy makers, supporting efforts to begin to address bullying of children with ASD through the IEP process in conjunction with school wide bullying prevention programs. For more information on the bill go to our website, www.massadvocates.org or contact Johanne at jpino@massadvocates.org To access the Anti-Bully survey, please go to the following link http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=X_2fcHQIBNeypAnvwAqMaR3g_3d_3d  You can also fill out the attached survey and send it to Johanne Pino, Massachusetts Advocates for Children, 25 Kingston St. 2nd floor Boston MA 02111
