Thank heaven for people and places like these. ASD can be devastating but the potential in these children is limitless. Having worked with children on the spectrum for over 10 years I have seen the changes that can occur. With therapy and love children can make tremendous gains. It isn't easy or fast, but well worth the efforts.

It is great that these facilities are available, but too many of us can't afford them.

It would be nice if Utah insurance companies and laws were a little more geared to help us get the help we need. There are other states which have these kinds of laws.

We probably don't even try because there are SO many autistic kids in Utah.
