Abstract

Autism is a developmental disability that for years was closeted as a mysterious ailment that was not often researched, understood or even discussed. When the federal Education for All Handicapped Children Act of 1975 (Public Law 94-142) was passed, parents, professionals, and even the public started to look for answers to questions about autism that had been left unanswered for years. This law stated that all handicapped children were to be placed in the least restrictive environment.
