Dear Parents and Autism Caregivers,

No disorder is as confusing to comprehend or as complex to diagnose as autism. And, no disorder has more myths and misconceptions surrounding it than autism.

In fact, University of California scientists and clinicians all agree that the earlier an autistic child starts a program, the better the symptoms can be treated, yet for infants and toddlers an accurate diagnosis can take several years.

As a result, many parents are confused, worried and frustrated.

And, once diagnosed hopes get shattered ... dreams get crushed ... and what should be a joyous parenting experience becomes what feels like an eternity of confusion and pain.
