We've tried to arrange our site map like the table of contents in a good book;
you can find things easily from here!
Our goal is to bring you products that help you to help your child, and to employ
people with disabilities in the production and sales of these products.
News on products and other things that we think might interest you...
If you are a fellow parent of an autistic child, or just someone who wants to
find out what it's like to walk a little in our shoes, please enjoy the read...

dog.

that struggle is for him.
- TV Guardian
DID YOU KNOW... that Sanyo makes TVs, VCRs and DVD players with a feature called, "TV Guardian", which can be programmed to shut out bad language on TV, videos or DVD's.
LucasWorks was started by Lauren Padgett, mother of two terrific children, one of
whom (Lucas) is autistic and mentally retarded. Lauren and her husband, Alan, saw the two-fold need
for products that would help Lucas in his daily life, and the eventual need for Lucas to have
employment.
Made with the help of people with autism and developmental disabilities, our
Autism Awareness bracelet & other products actually TEACH people something about autism!
