I went in for my visit with Cathy and I was so surprised, her place was so cozy, and when I went to sit down this adorable little dog came over and laid down on my lap, he was so cute! So I started to spill my guts out to her, and let me tell you I can talk, well when I let her have a word into the conversation she remembered everything I had said, nobody listens to me that much! this is one amazing woman I totally recommend her ...read more

Russell Wayne Gilpin—Future Horizons
Future Horizons became the largest publisher in the world, in autism, because of love. Not a love of profit or glory..but the love of a son. R. Wayne Gilpin had a son, Alex, who was challenged with autism, but blessed with a wonderfully giving and honest view of the world. Diagnosed at the age of three, he faced the trials of every child with autism—trying to understand a world that did not think the way he did…and one that was often cruel because he was different. But, as he watched him grow, Wayne saw and focused on the attributes of sweetness and candor, and a unique intelligence. He became a son that Wayne not only loved but one he admired for his kind and gentle demeanor, and a sense of humor that was beguiling. He had a sense of seeing the world differently, but not wrong. In his role, as past President of the Autism Society of America, Wayne saw many parents and educators who took a negative and passive view about children with autism. Seeing this conflict between the often negative and resigned view of autism, and his perspective of joy in his son, Wayne decided to write a book about the fun, humor, and love of his son. So, he wrote “Laughing and Loving with Autism.” At first, he expected to only offer it to parents he may meet who had negative feelings, and to help educators better understand the perspectives of those with autism. But; instead, an important new chapter in his life was about to unfold. As a publisher of other books, he knew that a new book, in a new field, would not likely receive much recognition. So, he had only 500 copies printed and assumed it would take at least a year to have them purchased or given away. Instead all of them went in three days. Then partially due to his name being known in the autism world, through his work with the Autism Society of America, others came to him with their books. The reception to these titles, and the over 140 to follow, over the next 14 years was beyond his wildest expectations. To supplement the books, he began offering conferences featuring the authors and included videos of more popular authors. Now, the titles offered by Future Horizons are in 20 languages, and are sold in over 50 countries. From an idea to help parents see the benefits and positives of having a child with autism, has sprung a company, which serves a need that no one knew existed 14 years ago. Future Horizons is not only recognized as a leader in the field of autism, but is respected as an outstanding small publishing company, among the best in the world. ...read more
