The  Center for Autism Research (CAR) is a collaborative research center between The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and the University of Pennsylvania. CAR's primary mission is to understand the causes of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and develop effective treatments through research with infants through adults. Families who participate receive comprehensive assessment reports and are paid for their time and some travel expenses. CAR is also committed to serving the needs of families living with ASD through education and guidance. The new CAR Autism Roadmap seeks to help families answer questions about life with autism, whether they are new to the diagnosis or have lived with it for years, as well as connect them with resources in their communities via the CAR Resource Directory.

Anxiety and Autism Spectrum Disorder

A Workshop for Professionals, Parents/ Caregivers Supporting Children with ASD

This workshop is geared towards professionals who work with children and adolescents who are diagnosed with ASD.
 
Parents/caregivers are also welcome to attend.

Please reach out with any questions.

This workshop will be offered free of charge, but you must register in advance, as space is limited.
