Parents receiving the news of an autism diagnosis face many complex challenges, including learning about the disorder, locating essential services and resources, and finding ways to support their child at home and in the community.

Best Practices for Family Support

  1. Focusing on overall health of the family
    Working with the family as a collective unit to promote well-being of all members.

  2. Strengthening the functioning capacity of families through education and support meetings, private consultations and home visits 

  3. Partnering with families as experts throughout the assessment, program decision- and goal-making processes for their child on the spectrum 

  4. Linking families to community supports and services to provide individualized, culturally-responsive, and relevant services for each family.
