Port Helps Sponsor New Baseball 		   
Summary Statement:

For children with autism, playing a team sport is often next to impossible. John Crawley, a well-known member of the Port Washington community, is hoping to change that. Crawley is starting a baseball program for young children, ages 3 to 5, who are high-functioning on the autistic scale. The Children's Athletic Enrichment program (CAE) is a community based program for families raising loved ones with autism. The goal of the program is to introduce children to a typical athletic program, similar to one they could eventually join in later years. It's a program that fosters socialization and prepares kids with autism to participate in mainstream athletic programs.
