Bubel Aiken Foundation Article To Be In Exceptional Magazine

According to icame4themusic at The Clayboard, an announcement was made at the Cypress NAG Gala event by Dianne Austin and Sue O'Hearn that an article they had written about the Bubel Aiken Foundation has received approval to be included in Exceptional Parent Magazine. Dianne Austin is icame4themusic's daughter, and she tells us:

For a year and a half, Dianne and Sue have labored on this special article concerning the dramatic rise in growth of the Foundation through these past four years, and especially the introduction of our little Mikayla, about whom those third grade classmates wrote so touchingly, and with such new and deeply felt awareness of making a friend with a disability.

Dianne and Sue worked closely with Clay's Foundation contact, Kristy Barnes, over an incredibly long period, culminating in the publication, and now availability of this article in the Exceptional Parent Magazine, in their current issue.

The article is in the current April issue of Exceptional Parent, April being "Autism Awareness Month". If you want to order this issue, go to Exceptional Parent's website. On the home page's top left column, it says, "Order this EP Special Issue". Click there and then register to order. After registering, you can also go to the table of contents page to see the table of contents for the month of April. The article is on Page 32 of the magazine, and it says, "An Update On The Bubel Aiken Foundation By Dianne Austin and Sue O’Hearn; The organization that was once a vision for a pop star now exhibits a sure footing with strong support, model programs, and a book that offers a simple blueprint for the inclusion of all children." Price of this special issue is $6.50.

What a great place for many people to read about the vision of The Bubel Aiken Foundation as well as a great keepsake for Clay's fans.

Why do I have bragging rights, you ask? Well, Dianne Austin is my daughter, and all I can say is., "You've come a long way, baby!"
