About this guide

Five parts follow the path from the first concern to the start of care: understanding what autism spectrum disorder is, observing everyday life without turning activities into tests, seeking an assessment, supporting needs while the family waits, and navigating Brazil's public health system. Services and referral pathways may vary between municipalities and states and should be confirmed locally.
