Texas Agency Proposes Ending Children's Autism Program

A Texas health agency has proposed eliminating a program for children with autism.

The proposal concerns services for children in Texas.

Israel Solis, a 7-year-old boy, was born with autism and is nonverbal.

He has bitten and scratched himself in frustration when people could not understand his needs.

The account says he received therapy, but the available details do not identify the therapy or its provider.

The proposal is not described as a final decision, and no next steps are given.
