About Healthcare4ASD.

The prevalence of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) has continued to increase by 200% over the last 20 years. Care and dialogue for ASD is consequently moving consistently higher in the social agenda. For the professionals that work most often with people with ASD, there is a need for their training to match pace with this emerging and future need of our society.​
