Initiations and Interactions: Early Intervention Techniques for Parents of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders – (PDF/EPUB Version)

From a speech-language pathologist’s view point, this book discusses the importance of creating a communication environment in the home during early childhood. As such, it offers simple, everyday tips for deliberate use of books, toys, visual schedules and labeling for children diagnosed with an ASD. The author does not advocate that parents steer clear of therapists and specialists but designed this resource to give parents specific strategies to help their children develop communication skills.
