[quote=Anonymous]We just received an ASD (Level 1) and ADHD diagnosis for my 8 year old son. I'm a bit overwhelmed in trying to find out how to begin coordinating resources for him. The recommendations we received were Speech Therapy for some speech delays and Occupational Therapy to enhance his fine motor skills. We also will need to work with his school team to create an IEP. And then a more generalized therapy for the ASD and ADHD. Would we typically seek these types of therapy with one provider (or provider group)? Or are there specialists that we should seek in each type of therapy? Also, how much of these things would need to be in place to support development of his IEP? He'll be going into 3rd grade and I would like to make sure that his start to the school year is positive. I'm just trying to get an idea of where to start. Thanks in advance for any advice and guidance.[/quote]
