| Autism is a developmental disability resulting in varying degrees of developmental delay and impairment particularly in social interactions and communication. Autism can affect a person’s ability to communicate, relate to others, and interact with his or her surroundings. Signs of autism usually appear by about 18 months of age. It is usually diagnosed between the ages of two and three. Many individuals with autism display very unique personalities and interests – just as any other individual. Because autism can take on many different functioning levels, individuals with these needs can accomplish many goals within all different types of environments. With proper supports, individuals with autism have the ability to be successful in all environments. |
