New to a diagnosis


Where to begin
Wondering if someone you know may be on the autism spectrum but aren't sure where to begin?
You're not alone. That's why we created our Where to Begin: Autism Guide—a free resource designed to help families take the first steps with confidence.
Inside, you'll find:
-
Local clinics and providers that offer autism evaluations
-
Helpful tips and questions to ask during the assessment process
-
Practical guidance based on the experiences of our Spectrum Strong village and the lessons we've learned along the way
Every family's journey is different, and navigating a possible diagnosis can feel overwhelming. We hope this guide provides a starting point, answers some of your questions, and reminds you that you don't have to navigate this journey alone.
At Spectrum Strong, we're here to connect, support, and encourage you every step of the way.
