Finding Information on Autism

It’s estimated that the prevalence of Autism is about 6 in 1,000 people, and relative to other diseases and illnesses, this is a significant portion of the population.  There is a high demand for Autism information amongst the public, but it’s not always easy to know the most reliable places to find it.  There are a couple of reliable sources to find information about Autism, the first being the US Center for Disease Control and Prevention website.  This is a government website that provides accurate information about autism symptoms, treatment, diagnosis, and frequently asked questions.  There is also the National Autism Association website that is a bit more personable than the government website, providing a network of parents and experts. 

Make sure to double check sources about Autism information, and ultimately consult a physician if you believe your child has Autism or is showing the symptoms.  The earlier treatment begins the more successful it will be in the long run.
