Autism Spectrum Disorders: What Every Parent Needs to Know
Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are a group of related brain-based disorders that affect a child's behavior, communication, and social skills.

We help you understand how ASDs are defined and diagnosed and provide you with information on the most current types of behavioral and developmental therapies.
