Research Volunteers

Who are we looking for?

If you…

have access to (own or can borrow) a VHS or VHS-C video camera (we currently can't handle PAL or 8mm or digital)
are the parent, guardian, or care giver for a person with or without autism (any age), and
are willing to shoot a short video for us (less than 5 minutes)…

we are looking for you!

What do you have to do?

You need to be able to shoot a short video of someone while someone else is talking to or with them. The subject of the video can be someone who has autism - or not (we need both). We're looking for home video quality - no professional production skills are needed. Also, you'll need to fill out a short questionnaire that will identify you, the person in your video, whether or not they have autism and the source of their diagnosis (if any). That's it.

How do I sign up?

Copy the following section to an e-mail message, fill in the blanks, type your name after (signed) (in the U.S., this is a binding legal signature), enter the date, and mail it (snail or e-) to the address below.
