SIAT: ICYMI

Is there anything valuable to learn about autism in the regular newsletter from ASAT?

The venerable, marvelous, savvy, and trusted Association for Science in Autism Treatment is back again with its monthly newsletter. For July 2024, Science in Autism Treatment published yet another excellent issue that explains what the ASAT has learned.

Here’s a selected (i.e., not exhaustive) list of some topics in the July 2025 newsletter:

• Making Sense of Autism Treatments: Weighing the Evidence

  With more than 500 different autism treatments available, choosing the right one can be confusing and overwhelming, especially if your child was recently diagnosed.

• How Can I Better Integrate Compassionate Care into ABA Education and Practice?
  Compassionate care has become a prominent topic in the field of ABA over the past decade. Although it seems simple, understanding what compassionate care is, and how we apply it in practice can be a challenge.

• What I Wish People Knew about Parents of Profoundly Autistic Children…
  Eileen Lamb, mother to two sons with autism and a younger daughter, offers a powerful, authentic, and much-needed perspective on raising and caring for a profoundly autistic child
