Screen and Diagnose early:
The earlier your child receives autism screening, the earlier the diagnosis, the earlier they start receiving services and therapies, the better they will do over the long term.
It is of therefore of critical importance to get your child the help they need if they may have autism. Early screening, if positive, and even before a full diagnosis, should trigger early services for your child.
Research studies have proved that early intensive education and therapies can yield significantly improved developmental outcomes. In addition, it has been suggested that interventions initiated before 3 years of age may have a greater positive impact than those begun after the age of 5 years (Zwaigenbaum et al, 2015).
