The Autism Guidebook
for Washington State was developed through the efforts of the Caring for Washington
Individuals with Autism Task Force, a Governor appointed
group comprised of parents and professionals, established in
2005 by the Washington State Legislature.
The
Legislature instructed the Autism Task Force in 2007-2008 to
compile information for and draft a Washington State guide
for individuals with autism—birth through lifespan—as described
in the Task Force's 2006 recommendations.
Patterned after the
Ohio Service Guidelines for Individuals with ASD/PDD,
Birth through Twenty-One, this book contains a wealth of
relevant information for families, educators, medical
professionals, care providers, and others who make informed
decisions about individual care of children and adults with
Autism Spectrum Disorder and related disorders.
