UNDERSTANDING AUTISM IN THE VERY YOUNG

Speakers: Leonard Oestreicher, MD | Dirk Mous, MD

As Autism becomes more and more common around the world parents, grandparents, friends and families want to know:
  • What factors are causing this condition to effect children they know and love?
  • If the children that they care for are ‘at risk’ for autism?
  • How to encourage social behavior in the very young and thereby perhaps prevent Autism?
  • Why all children should be screened for Autism between 16 and 36 months of age?
  • What we can do in Merced to study and better understand Autism?
  • JOIN US to find out the answers to these vital questions and more.
