Ann Millan shares the story of how she helped her daughter, Robin,
move past the many challenges of severe autism in Autism-Believe in
the Future. Her first goal was simple; she wanted to stop the
screaming, running, and self-injurious behaviors that her daughter
exhibited. For ten years, Ann was told by professionals that she
needed to accept Robin's disabilities. Not one to give up in the
face of adversity, Ann finally found quality professionals to help
her. Ann knew education and therapies were Robin's priority, but
self-image and socialization became her focus. Ann also knew
Robin's inappropriate behaviors were unacceptable in society. Ann
and her husband, Bob, became Robin's case managers and Robin
progressed beyond their wildest dreams. Autism is not a
one-size-fits-all disability, so focusing on just one intervention
did not lead Robin to successful adulthood. Many steps had to be
taken along the way to get her successfully to her goal Parents and
autism professionals must work together, developing quality support
and services that are cost-effective-so we can all believe in the
future for our children. Today, Robin has two jobs, lives in her
own condominium, drives her own car, and is a part of her
community. This is her story
