Addressing Autism

From: Early Intervention

$2.80

This chapter describes the disability known as Autism Spectrum Disorder

(ASD) and details what researchers and parents say can be done

about it. It also tells the story of how the policy-makers are neither reading

the research nor listening to parents, because, if they did, they would

know that intervening early is the best way to address autism. It can help

many children and save the government a great deal of money in the

process.
