I think my child has Autism. What Do I do next?
(
7/25/2011)
|
|
If you suspect that your child has autism and he or she was not diagnosed at school, or is no yet attending school, you should contact a pediatrician to discuss your concern and obtain a referral for evaluation by a child psychologist. If your child attends public school, you should be able to get all of the services through the school. If your child is under the age of three, you should also contact the Regional Center.
