BBB AUTISM PDF FILES

We have been offering some wonderful printable articles to our members for some time now.  Upon request, we have been sending them through email attachment. The problem was that not everyone was able to "read" the articles. 

BBB Autism is proud to present our articles in PDF format.

This format is readable by all, and the articles print out professionally and clearly.

All you need is a simple (free) download of Adobe Acrobat, which you can get by clicking here. Choose 'Acrobat Reader', follow the instructions, and in a few minutes, your download is complete!

Please feel free to copy and distribute these articles as many times as you'd like.  Permission has been granted to reprint from the authors. If you don't wish to download Adobe Acrobat, you can email me with article requests, and I'll send them to you in WORD format.  Please include the entire name of article and send to liz@deaknet.com.
