Overview

Autism spectrum disorder is a developmental disorder that can affect your child’s social interactions, communication, and learning. Each child with autism may fall on a different part of the autism spectrum. Some children are verbal; others are not. Some crave sensory input, while others avoid crowds and noises. Our team at the Duke Center for Autism and Brain Development is passionate about understanding your child’s unique situation and dedicated to helping your child reach his or her highest potential and independence.
