SCREENING AND DIAGNOSIS
TESTING FOR AUTISM: Developmental screening can be done by a number of professionals in health care, community, and school settings. It’s important to know the difference of what each type of evaluation will provide you.
An educational assessment will determine eligibility of resources that your child qualifies for and can start receiving services as early as 3 years old through the school district. A medical diagnosis of an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) does not automatically entitle a student to special education services.
A medical diagnosis is based on the patient’s history and behaviors. Various experts can make this diagnosis, including some psychologists, pediatricians and neurologists. While a medical diagnosis can provide some insight and determine medical necessity, schools need to conduct their own evaluations to determine educational eligibility and whether there is a need for special education and related services.
Primary care providers have regular contact with children before they reach school age and are able to provide family-centered, comprehensive, coordinated care, including a more complete medical assessment when a screening indicates a child is at risk for a developmental problem.
EDUCATION ASSESSMENT THROUGH CHILD FIND
- Under federal law, public schools must look for, find, and evaluate kids who need special education.
- This is called Child Find, and it covers kids from birth through age 21.
- It applies to all kids, including those who are homeschooled or in private schools, plus kids who are migrants or without homes.

RIGHT AFTER THE DIAGNOSIS
UNDERSTANDING THE DIAGNOSIS. WHAT IS AUTISM? Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex developmental condition involving persistent challenges with social communication, restricted interests, and repetitive behavior. While autism is considered a lifelong disorder, the degree of impairment in functioning because of these challenges varies between individuals with autism.
SUPPORT GROUPS and RESOURCE : Receiving an Autism diagnosis is often difficult and overwhelming, so its important to give yourself time to process the diagnosis that you or your loved one just received. When you are ready, connect with a community who understands your feelings to obtain information, resources, and most importantly support.
