Asperger Syndrome Educational Programs
As parents of a son with Asperger Syndrome, we've sought out a wide range of experts to help him succeed. We're sharing the best of what we've learned to help people with AS and other special needs -- and those who support them.
Because of the many similarities between Asperger Syndrome, Higher Functioning Autism, PDD-NOS, Semantic-Pragmatic Disorder and Nonverbal Learning Disabilities, many of the strategies described in our AS programs should also work well for individuals who are diagnosed with these conditions.
Valuable for parents, counselors and patients!
