Ohio's Parent Guide to Autism Spectrum Disorders is now available from OCALI. CLICK HERE

This manual provides an overview of the world of autism spectrum disorders (ASD). It was developed by Ohio parents of individuals with ASD who have a broad range of experience with interventions, resources, and services. (Members from ASO, ASA Central Ohio, ASA Cleveland, ASA Northwest Ohio, and Akron ASA, among others, helped to write the manual.) The group’s work began with the question: What do you wish you had known the first year your child was diagnosed?

The manual covers a wide range of topics of interest to families, and each chapter contains rich reference materials, including books, websites, and names of organizations where additional information on each topic may be obtained.

The manual is downloadable from the website listed in total or on a "by chapter" basis.

Please share this information!
