April is Autism Acceptance Month, a time that raises awareness about autism and promotes inclusion and connectedness for people with autism.
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurological and developmental disorder that affects how people interact with others, communicate, learn and behave. Although autism can be diagnosed at any age, it is described as a “developmental disorder” because symptoms generally appear in the first 2 years of life. Recent data suggests that 1 in 36 children in the U.S. are diagnosed with ASD, with boys being four times more likely to receive that diagnosis, according to a news release from The Bowen Center.
Bowen Health Clinic provides autism spectrum disorder screening, therapies and interventions for children and adults. Treatment can include help with behavior management, social skills training, medication treatment and more. Treatment is designed for each person’s unique goals. Guidance helps reduce symptoms and to explore options that make positive differences in the daily lives of families.
Bowen Health Clinic welcomes Medicaid, and no one is turned away for an inability to pay. To make an appointment, call 8003425653.
