RFK Jr's team advocates radical autism research changes

Autism advocacy groups and researchers have expressed concerns that a new federal research plan, authored by advisers aligned with Robert F. Kennedy Jr., promotes unproven therapies and risks diverting funding from promising genetic research. The 336-page plan emphasizes alternative treatments like folinic acid, despite limited scientific evidence of their effectiveness, and proposes supported-living models that could lead to institutionalization. Critics warn that the plan's approaches may undermine established community-based care and include controversial procedures such as fecal transplants, raising safety and transparency issues.
