World Autism Day 2013: Growing Older With Autism

April 2nd is World Autism Day. In the US, it is estimated that every 1 in 150 live with autism. The focus is often on younger children with autism, but today we will be looking at how early intervention can help a young child with autism develop life skills, which will help them integrate into the wider community when they reach their adult years.
