The Autism Speaks 100 Day Kit is created specifically for newly diagnosed families, to make the best possible use of the 100 days following the diagnosis of autism. The kit contains information and advice collected from trusted and respected experts on autism as well as from parents of children with autism. There is a week by week plan for the next 100 days, as well as organizational suggestions and forms that parents/caregivers can use to help with the paperwork and phone calls, as they begin to find services for their child.
Newly diagnosed families (within six months of diagnosis) can order a kit which will contain personalized information specific to the child's age and location. Please fill out the survey (click here) and an Autism Speaks Autism Response Team coordinator will contact you by phone, to get some additional information so that we may personalize a kit for you and your child.
