Early diagnosis in autism is critical for setting the stage for better long-term outcomes. Research from the CDC shows that children diagnosed before age 3 who receive early intervention services are more likely to develop stronger communication and social skills.
However, the current median age for an autism diagnosis in the U.S. is over 4 years, leaving a significant gap.
