In honor of autism awareness month, an Orange County man is launching a social network called Moms Fighting Autism. The social network aims to connect moms of children with autism.

Members of the Moms Fighting Autism social network can immediately setup journals, photo albums, interest profiles and friends lists. The social network allows users to comment on photos, journals and send notes of support to others coping with autism.

Autism effects one out of 150 children in the United States and there is no known cause or cure for it. There are social networks such as Myspace and Facebook that are more general but MomsFightingAutism.com focuses on only autism.

For the past 4 months, the site has enrolled 1,500 beta test members evaluating the site features and performance. It was launched officially today.
