Tantrums and undesirable behavior are common problems for children on the spectrum. Why is it that sometimes behavioral strategies work, and sometimes they don't in turning these behaviors around? What is the missing piece from the behavioral approaches that, once put in place, could change the outcome for our children?- Sandra Sinclair, www.autismvoice.com

This is a free Mini Course with 7 clear steps you can take to help your child now.

As a parent of a child on the autism spectrum, I wish something like this was available when my child was diagnosed. That's why I wrote this course.

"Newly Diagnosed" covers understanding the symptoms of autism spectrum disorders, getting an evaluation, choosing interventions, finding resources for education, support and advocacy, and updates from Autismvoice.

No matter where you are on the journey, the resources and information contained in this course can be helpful for families of children with autism spectrum disorders.

"You have clearly written an invaluable resource to support parents through the difficult and fearful experience of realizing that their child has some form of autism. Your e-course is packed with compassion, education and resources and leads a parent down a step by step path for effectively dealing with a difficult situation. I will easily refer any parent I meet who has an autistic child to you."
