First 100 Day Kit by Autism Speaks

Autism Speaks has created a 100 Day Kit specifically for newly diagnosed families, to make the best possible use of the 100 days following the diagnosis of autism. The kit contains information and advice from trusted and respected experts on autism and parents of children with autism. There is a week by week plan for the next 100 days, organizational suggestions and forms that parents/caregivers can use to help with the paperwork and phone calls, as they begin to find services for their child.
