The Center for Autism and Related Disorders at Kennedy Krieger Institute in Baltimore, MD is providing free developmental assessments for infants between five to 10 months who have an older sibling diagnosed with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and live within Virginia. The free assessments will be offered throughout April and beyond.
Researchers have found that if you have a child with autism, there is a 1 in 5 chance you will have another child on the spectrum. Kennedy Krieger Institute is providing this free service to improve early identification of children most at risk for ASD - infant siblings - to ensure they don't miss out on early intervention that can dramatically improve lifelong learning, communication and social skills.
