With a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) parents are often left with many more questions than answers. The internet provides a wealth of information however, it is often difficult to determine which sources are credible and which are providing information that is not evidence-based. We have created this blog to help assist you with navigating your child’s ASD diagnosis. We will help guide you in understanding your child’s diagnosis, determining what services are evidence-based and a range of other topics related to your child’s growth and development.
