We would like to thank Center for Children With Special Needs for their sponsorship of ASAT at the Alliance level!

CCSN is the largest private outpatient assessment and treatment facility specifically for Autism and related Neurodevelopmental Disorders in Connecticut. The organization hasn’t rested on its laurels. In 2013, CCSN established The Center for Independence to provide a more specialized entity for evaluation and treatment of later adolescents and adults. Continuing growth led to a reorganization of clinical services into four divisions: Clinical Services, Consultative Services, Adult Services, and International Services. This has allowed for CCSN to address the whole spectrum of clinical and educational needs from initial diagnosis and treatment to programmatic and educational support to transition planning, vocational support, and resources to facilitate independent living.

In our latest Media Corner letter, we respond to ABC Gold Coast’s article on rising autism diagnoses and the risks of non-evidence-based treatments.

In the letter, we acknowledge the importance of highlighting evidence-based practice, while also naming the real pressures families face when long waitlists and limited access make pseudoscientific interventions seem appealing. We at ASAT strongly advocate for science-backed, ethical supports that protect the wellbeing and rights of autistic people and their families.
