    In the 2009 IACC Strategic Plan, the IACC listed the ``Spirit of 
Collaboration'' as one of its core values, stating that, ``We will 
treat others with respect, listen to diverse views with open minds, 
discuss submitted public comments, and foster discussions where 
participants can comfortably offer opposing opinions.'' In keeping with 
this core value, the IACC and the NIMH Office of Autism Research 
Coordination (OARC) ask that members of the public who provide public 
comments or participate in meetings of the IACC also seek to treat 
others with respect and consideration in their communications and 
actions, even when discussing issues of genuine concern or 
disagreement.

conference call phone number and webcast live on the Internet. Members

will be able to listen to the meeting but will not be heard. If you 
experience any technical problems with the webcast or conference call, 
please send an email to [email protected] or by phone at

    Individuals who participate in person or by using these electronic 
services and who need special assistance, such as captioning of the 
conference call or other reasonable accommodations, should submit a 
request to the Contact Person listed on this notice at least 5 days 
prior to the meeting.
