• ABA is a proven method of educating children with autism - 30 years of scientific evidence proves it.
• The Department of Education funds it for children in 12 schools around the country - so they know it works.
• Independent experts who have assessed all children at Barnacoyle have recommneded ABA for each child.
• It makes financial sense - invest early and children may progress to mainstream school, children may not need long term residential care.

• Is it right that a child who has been recommended an ABA education is deprived of it by the Department of Education?
• Is it right that a child’s future should be cruelly taken by our Government when the cost of providing the education is so small?
• Is it right that St. Catherine’s Service with a history of over 30 years of excellent service to the community should have to struggle for years and still not receive funding and recognition for their ABA school?
• Vote for parties who support funding ABA in Barnacoyle

Please think carefully - if your child or grandchild is diagnosed with autism you will want the best possible chance for them to reach their potential. Look at the past record of this Government - will children get the best chance if this Government is re-elected? Our children have but one chance at childhood. Make your vote count for their future.
