One Book Charleston County: Touched by Autism



Touched by Autism
Wednesday, October 17

at 6:30 p.m.
St. Andrew’s Regional Library



Oskar Schell, the lead character of Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, sees the world differently. Exhibiting the traits of autism, Oskar is highly intelligent, but has trouble expressing himself and making friends. Today, medical professionals consider autism at epidemic levels with the diagnosis nearly doubling in the past 20 years.

A 2008 study showed 1 in 88 children are struggling with some form of this developmental disorder. With no known cure and no definitive cause, the Medical University of South Carolina created Project Rex, an outpatient treatment program to better understand and help children with the disorder.

Learn more about Project Rex, find out about the signs and symptoms of autism plus available treatments during this presentation and discussion with experts from MUSC. Presenters include James Trulove - LISW-CP, Jennifer Warthen - LISW-CP, Nancy Warren - PhD and Dr. Frampton Gwynette, the director of Project Rex.
