𧊠HUGE BOOST FOR AUTISM RESEARCH & SUPPORT!
Great news! Congress has secured nearly $400 million in funding for autism research and programs in 2026! This means more support for early identification, better healthcare training, and deeper research into understanding autism.
đ HRSA autism programs are getting a boost to train more health professionals in autism-informed care. The CDC will expand studies on autism prevalence and early diagnosis outreach.
đ§ Research is focusing on evidence-based therapies like naturalistic developmental behavioral interventions (NDBIs) and parent-mediated models.
đ A landmark five-year study is tracking 7,500 children to understand pre-symptom development and treatments. Plus, look out for a CME series covering parenting topics like sleep disturbances and behavioral challenges!
