MOMS Advocating Sustainability (MAS), in conjunction with our two local Mom Doctors, Myrto Ashe, MD, MPH, and Michelle Perro, MD, D.HOM, (of Down To Earth Pediatrics), will be exploring what is known about toxins that affect your children's learning and behavior.

What causes hyperactivity, learning differences, sensory processing issues, ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder? How much depends on parenting, genetics and how much is a reflection of our world and its toxins and pollutants?

This presentation will discuss the ways in which chemicals in our environment are known to affect the development of children's brains.

$5 donation suggested at the door. Babes in arms are okay.
For more information email Myrto Ashe at myrtoashe@yahoo.com.

Channel 26, Marin's local TV channel will be videotaping the Forum. We will alert you when it will be aired.
