Web-based ASD Video Glossary
Autism Speaks (https://www.autismspeaks.org), in collaboration with First Signs and Florida State University’s FIRST WORDS Project (http://firstwordsproject.com ), has developed a Web-based Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) Video Glossary to help parents of children suspected of or recently diagnosed with autism understand the words and terms used in association with ASD. It contains hundreds of video clips contrasting behaviors that are red flags for ASD with behaviors that are typical. It is also meant for professionals who do not have experience in diagnosing young children with ASD.

We specialize in providing parents with the tools to help their child be more successful both at home and in the community. We also advocate for families at IEP meetings, bridging the gap between home and school.
We do not provide in-home therapy, but rather tools and training for parents to use at home with their child.
