SCOTTSDALE, Arizona—In one week, SPELLERS, a movie inspired by the book my son Jamie and I wrote in 2021 titled Underestimated: an Autism Miracle will be having its world premiere at the Phoenix Film Festival (“PFF”).
ASHA, it appears, will stoop to any level to protect their territory, and of course, their gravy train. Much like the AMA, ADA, American Cancer Society, CDC, FDA, etc, it's not about well-being, it's about the money. God Bless you and Jamie, and all of the incredible people who have come together, against all odds and opposition, to put together S2C. I have ''Underestimated'' and read it in practically one sitting, it was that riveting. Congratulations on Spellers, and much continued success!
In 1963 at UC Davis I took an observation of preschoolers class as part of the general Home Economics curriculum. There was a little boy with autism and they said it was caused by his mother not holding him as a baby. Boy have we come a long way!
Hi JB, Thanks again for all you do,all you have done, and for enduring all you have suffered for doing what you have done. You are one in a million at least. Question, is your twitter account still blocked , cancelled ? Perhaps Elon can reinstate if yes. Was your handle @jb_handley previously?
The very best advice I ever got about working with kids with autism was "always presume competence". I'm glad that S2C was developed based on this premise. So many lives will be changed by this film as it exposes people to this idea, and informs families of nonspeakers about this mode of therapy.

I just watched it. Wow wow wow! I am so determined to help. What can I do to help? I wrote this immediately after watching it, and I've also reached out to my colleagues. https://drmaryanne.substack.com/p/jb-handleys-spellers-documentary?sd=pf
