Living outside of a big city can pose unique challenges for those looking for autism care:
-
Finding Treatment
Getting tested and treated and finding autism-sensitive medical care is more complicated and time-consuming. -
Understanding ASD
Fewer members of your community have experience dealing with autistic individuals or understand the nature of autism. -
Providing ASD Care
Learning everything you need to know to care for an affected loved one can easily become overwhelming.

Share Your ExperiencesInformed by Expertise
