May Institute, 6298 Veterans Pkwy Suite 9B
The National Autism Center (NAC) launched the National Standards Project in 2005, the primary goal of the National Standards Project is to provide critical information about which treatments have been shown to be effective for individuals with ASD. This free presentation by Dr. Hanna Rue will focus on how the NAC evaluated the quality of science for each of the 775 treatment articles that were reviewed. The treatments identified as established, emerging, and unestablished will be discussed. Finally, we will review how practitioners can use these treatments as part of the evidence – based practice for the treatment of autism.
