Good Autism site recommended by Outreach teacher

http://www.autism4teachers.com/autism4teachers_051.htm
Theresa O'Connell from Little Heath Outreach recommended this site and its really a good collection of resources. I am booked to deliver lots of disability awareness training this term- so I particularly liked the Awareness section where there are some good presentations that could be used with students. Wide range of links and resources here.
If you have a favourite site we have not featured yet - let us know and we will feature it on the blog.
