About What You’ll Work On

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a group of developmental disabilities that can cause significant social, communication, mental health and behavioral challenges.

• Although autism can be diagnosed at any age, it is described as a “developmental disorder” because symptoms generally appear in the first 2 years of life.
• People with ASD may face a wide range of issues, which means that there is no single best treatment for ASD.
• Working closely with a health care provider like MeBe Family is an important part of finding the right combination of treatment and services.
