Autism Resource Center
Autism, an early childhood condition characterized by symptoms of abnormal social interaction, communication, or behavior, is one in a group of disorders comprising autism spectrum disease. The causes of autism are unknown. Early signs of autism include unusual responses to environmental stimuli, unusual social interaction, and language delays. Behavioral, educational, and psychological therapies are the most effective autism treatments. Autism awareness and early diagnosis are crucial for effective treatment. Autism Overview
