 * I contacted Dr. Alessandri at UM plus many other names that I found on the above website about exisiting programs for early autism or early intervention.**

I checked into UM's Program and contacted Dr. Alessandri. He said that he department did not have anything but there is a program running out of UM called Project PEACE run by Dr. Diana Valle-Riestra (riestrad@fiu.edu). I sent her an email on Tuesday but she has not replied yet. I will follow up with her again if she does not write by Monday.


 * I spoke with Chrissy (__ Christine.Ogilvie@selu.edu  __). She does not know of any programs, but suggested the following: "You might want to contact Dr. Catherine Lyons at UNLV as she is very well versed in ECH and knowledgeable in many other ways as well."

She also said- "As for the CD's, there aren't any extras there at UCF (because I gave them all away). However, I think Linda, Dr. Cross, and Dr. Reyes, as well as the cohort before you, have copies of them." -Chrissy
