HANDLE Institute Clinical and Educational Director Judith Bluestone has received a Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Ward for Public Service and a Jefferson Award for her extraordinary work with autistic children. Her book, The Fabric of Autism: Weaving the Threads into a Cogent Theory (Handle), now in its second printing, and based on over four decades of practice, describes her approach to increasing tolerance for stimuli, improving ability to regulate and self-organize, and release stress that affects learning and daily activity. "In its pace, balance between theory and hard facts, and splendid use of anecdotal examples, Bluestone conveys complex issues in a way that is readable by everyone." - Joseph Chilton Pearce.
