As a boy, Raun K. Kaufman was diagnosed by multiple experts as severely autistic, with an IQ below 30, and destined to spend his life in an institution. Years later, Raun graduated with a degree in Biomedical Ethics from the Ivy League’s Brown University and has become a passionate and articulate spokesperson for the Autism community. Raun K. Kaufman is now Director of Global Education of the Autism Treatment Center of America™. So what happened? Thanks to The Son-Rise Program®, an incredible program his parents created, Raun experienced a full recovery from Autism. In Autism Breakthrough: The Groundbreaking Method That Has Helped Families All Over The World, Kaufman presents the ground-breaking principles behind the program that helped him, and so many other families with special children. Kaufman explains that Autism is frequently misunderstood as a behavioral disorder when in fact it is a social relational disorder. He explains what it feels like to be autistic, and shows how and why The Son-Rise Program, which focuses on the parent-child connection, works. And Kaufman offers clear, practical strategies for working with children that readers can apply immediately—in some cases,parents see a change in their children in as little as one day. Autism Breakthrough makes available for the first time in book form the principles and practical applications of The Son-Rise Program
