This  is  the  happy  face of  31 year old  severely autistic  Nancy Golin,   the light  of her parents’ eyes,   a  treasure since the
day she was born, a special gift from God. Five years later, after being ripped from the loving arms of her parents, isolatedfrom them, and held as a captive Ward of the State, Nancy’s health and spirit are fading. She has no rights, not even the right to see her parents. She is afraid, confused, she wants to go home; and she can’t understand why she can’t. If you read her story, you won’t understand either. Nancy’s health and safety are in crisis. She has suffered severe injuries and trauma while in the “care” of SARC* and everyday she slips a little further away.
