Autism Resources
Key Assets Behavioral Health offers diagnostic testing for Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs) through the use of the ADOS-2, a semi-structured, standardized assessment of communication, social interaction, play, and restricted and repetitive behaviors. It presents various activities that elicit behaviors directly related to a diagnosis of ASD. By observing and coding these behaviors, caregivers can obtain information that informs diagnosis, treatment planning, and educational placement for those diagnosed with ASD. If interested in scheduling an ADOS-2 assessment, please complete the online referral form.
We are currently experiencing delays in scheduling these assessments. We will be happy to accept your referral for this assessment, however, we wanted to communicate the delay. We appreciate your understanding and are hoping to identify solutions in the very near future.
We’ve assembled a list of organizations and helpful resources as you navigate your questions and seek more information about Autism. If we can be of further assistance in your specific situation, please reach out to us today.
Our team is often inspired by various authors and their personal experiences, plus those who are an authority in our field. We encourage you to add these compelling books to your list of resources
