This ground breaking documentary, premiered at the White House Conference on Children (1970), portrays the behaviors and achievements of Georgia, a four year old girl with autism, in her special education class at Preschooler's Workshop (now Variety Child Learning Center (VCLC)). This film helped pave the way for entitlements that children with autism receive today.
