Does the scientific opinion continue to be that facilitated communication
does not work?  APA adopted a policy statement in August 1994 stating this
and I find nothing new that suggests that APA's opinion has changed on this.
I didn't find any statements by APS. 

The reason I ask is that I just received a statement that an expert on
facilitated communication was going to be running a workshop at Frostburg as
part of an special education class and I am concerned that this approach may
be presented as a valid approach to be used in the local communities.

I have not kept up with this literature so I thought I would ask to see if
anyone has and can point me to the present view of such an approach.

Thanks,

Bill
