Overview

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that begins in early childhood and affects how people interact with others, communicate, learn, and behave. According to the CDC, 1 in 36 children in the U.S. have Autism, up from the previous rate of 1 in 44. 1 in 45 adults in the U.S. have Autism. In the U.S., about 4 in 100 boys and 1 in 100 girls have Autism.
