[quote=Anonymous]My young toddler was just diagnosed with moderate ASD and recommended for speech, OT, and ABA. I’m feeling overwhelmed with the logistics of all this, figuring out who the best local therapists are, etc. and not having any luck finding good support. It seems like many other serious, life-altering medical issues for kids have really wonderful and easy-to-find resources for new families, but I’m not finding anything like what my friends who have kids with things like Down Syndrome or diabetes seem to have. When I google for autism resources in my area I get a lot of companies selling services but not really parent support. On social media I find poorly run FB groups full of pseudoscience and people saying ABA is awful. Is there some great resource that I just out there that I just haven’t found? We’re not in DC, but wanted the anonymous place to ask.[/quote]
