Autism is a Pervasive Developmental Disorder which affects each individual differently. However many of the challenges an individual faces can be managed effectively with appropriate and up to date behavioral supports and modifications.  It is essential to be aware of the resources available and find the interventions which allow your child/patient/student to thrive and function as independently as possible.
