Overview of Publications and Research
Since our establishment in 1976, Groden Network professionals have made significant progress in understanding and assisting those with autism and behavioral disabilities. We have conducted considerable research and investigation in this challenging field, and have received numerous requests for our publications. In response, we have provided a list of the many articles that have been published in books and journals. In addition, we have produced videos that assist individuals in learning more about our relaxation and imagery procedures. Several books and manuals are also available to aid in understanding more about autism, behavioral disabilities, and behavior therapy techniques, all of which are integral components to the services we provide.

The Relaxation Station
The Children's Hospital of Michigan has developed a new innovative video to help children relax. The Relaxation Station combines spectacular scenes of wildlife, gentle music and simple exercises in relaxation to teach children the basic techniques of breathing, imagination and meditation.
Dr. June Groden reviewed the video and had the following to say: "What a lovely program. As you know, much of my work focuses on reducing stress and anxiety. I am using The Relaxation Station to supplement the work that I do in relaxation and self-control with children and adults. It can be used in classrooms, at home, and in treatment programs for individuals with autism and other developmental disabilities. It's so soothing and beautiful. Many, many thanks."
