Material Detail

The focus of early intervention is to help children on the autism spectrum in a way that minimizes the delay in their development caused by disorders such as autism, Asperger's syndrome and PDD-NOS. Early appropriate therapies can make a significant difference in more productive, satisfying, emotionally connected lives.
