Center for Autism Spectrum Disorders

Free Screening Clinic for Autism Spectrum Disorders at the ICD
Screening Date: Saturday, December 5th 2009, from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM

Upcoming Screening Dates: 2010- Dates TBA.

Autism Spectrum Disorders have become much more common over the last two decades, and emphasis is being placed upon early identification. Because children vary greatly in how they develop, especially between birth and 5 years of age, care must be taken not to mistakenly identify a child as having an autism spectrum disorder. On the other hand, in order to provide services as early as possible, it is also important not to miss early signs of a problem.

This is a free screening program for children aged 1-5 years old, by appointment only. We will accommodate as many families as we can schedule. This is not a diagnostic service, but rather a brief 30 minute screening process with you and your child to indicate if further evaluation is advised. We will meet with you to review important aspects of your child’s development, interact with your child, and provide you with advice as to how to proceed based upon what is or is not found. Please allow at least 1 hour at the screening as we require time after the initial brief screening to compile important information before having a discussion with you. After completing the form below, someone from our scheduling staff will call you to confirm an appointment time and provide additional information related to the screening day.

If you have questions, you can contact us by calling 877-788-4ASD (toll free) or email autism@binghamton.edu.
