Frequently Asked Questions

What are the characteristics of autism?

The characteristics and severity of autism varies widely. Some people on the spectrum have exceptional abilities in visual skills, music, and academic skills. For others with autism, characteristics may be more severe, as when repetitive behaviors and lack of spoken language interfere with everyday life. No matter how severe, Avenues is here to help through every phase of life.
