World Autism Awareness Day

KDAH

Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) develop at a different rate and don’t necessarily develop skills in the same order as typically developing children. Research shows that early diagnosis and interventions for autism are more likely to have major long-term positive effects on symptoms and later skills. Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) can sometimes be diagnosed in children before they are 2 years of age. With early intervention, some children with autism make so much progress that they are no longer on the autism spectrum when they are older. Autism speaks, it is time to listen and be more understanding, patient, and kind to children with autism. #WorldAutismAwarenessDay
