Autism Spectrum Disorder Resources

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that impacts how children and adults experience the world and engage with others. People with ASD have challenges with social communication skills, which impact how they interact and communicate with others. They also can become extremely focused on specific topics or objects of interest and engage in repetitive behaviors, such as hand flapping and lining up toys. Some people may have significant sensory interests or become overwhelmed by certain stimuli, such as sounds and textures. People with ASD may have other medical and developmental conditions, such as developmental delays, intellectual disabilities, learning disorders, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, mood disorders and genetic disorders. Each person with an ASD diagnosis will have different strengths, symptoms and challenges. As such, the care and resources needed will be unique to each person. As developmental-behavioral pediatric clinicians, we partner with children and their families as they navigate receiving an ASD diagnosis and reaching their full potential.
