Belvoir Media Group Acquires The Autism File

Norwalk, CT – May 16, 2011 -- Belvoir Media Group announces the acquisition of The Autism File and related website from Polly Tommey, founder and Editor-in-Chief.  Polly will remain with the publication as Editor-in-Chief.  She will also continue to produce the Autism File television program on Sky TV, which is distributed to more than 22 million European households.
“We are excited to have an opportunity to work with Polly, who has broken serious ground for the betterment of the autism community.  We will be able to provide significant resources and capital to expand the brand,” according to Tim Cole, Belvoir Media Group Executive Vice President.  Belvoir will immediately increase the distribution of the magazine, and will move to a six-time frequency in 2012.

The Autism File, distributed to an international readership, is devoted to helping parents with children on the autism spectrum lead healthful, happy lives.  Since 1999, Polly Tommey has brought a message of hope to caregivers worldwide, and is a frequent speaker advocating for children with autism. She has given presentations before the European Parliament and has met with both former Prime Minister Gordon Brown and current Prime Minister David Cameron in the United Kingdom to raise awareness of issues impacting citizens with autism.
 
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that one out of every 110 children now has an autism diagnosis. Males are four times more likely to have autism than females. It’s estimated that more than 36,000 children are diagnosed each year with an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), and the total population between the ages of zero and 21 with some form of ASD is now approaching 730,000. Worldwide, Autism Spectrum Disorders are becoming more prevalent.

The Autism File will continue to be a lifeline for children and their families, bringing vital support on subjects ranging from proper nutrition to behavioral therapies to the latest research. Significantly, it has been shown that people with an ASD often  benefit from a variety of interventions including implementation of a gluten-free, casein-free diet. Belvoir Media Group also publishes the leading magazine in the field of specialty diets, Living Without.
