What better way to raise much needed awareness in your community then to share your story with the local newspaper. Contact the journalist who writes the local human interest stories and ask if you or your child/family member can be featured. If they also post their stories online, send the link to ChristineToughill@histio.org and we will add to the Histio Press Room.
The HAA awareness kits and other helpful awareness items are now available! Go to the Awareness link found on the home page.
Here are some of our members stories found online today!
