About Barry Neil Kaufman
Son-Rise is a home-based therapeutic program for autistic and other developmentally disabled people. It was developed by former advertising executive Barry Neil Kaufman and his wife, Samahria Lyte Kaufman, for their son, Raun, who was diagnosed with autism and who they claimed fully recovered from the incurable and lifelong condition. In 2010, the program was described by Autism Speaks as a "child-centered program that places parents as the key therapists and directors of their program". Son-Rise has been criticized by some mainstream researchers for the high cost of in-person instructional courses and a lack of independent studies verifying its efficacy.
