ASGSA embraces an "open options" philosophy. We offer education and information on the complete range of treatments and providers, without advocating any particular intervention, so that families, and to the extent possible, the individual with autism, can select the services and supports that are most appropriate for their individual circumstances. This philosophy is driven by a recognition that autism presents itself differently in different people, and that no one intervention has proven to be 100% effective.

All information provided by or published by the ASGSA is for informational purposes only. Under the Autism Society of America's (ASA) Option Policy (of which Autism Society of Greater San Antonio is an authorized chapter), you are responsible for the choice of any treatment or therapy option or service provider. Specific treatment, therapy or services should be provided to an individual only at the direction of the individual's doctor, care giver, or other qualified professional.

Reference to any treatment or therapy option or to any program, service or treatment provider is not an endorsement by ASGSA or ASA of the treatment or therapy option, program, service or provider referenced. Further, references to treatment or therapy options, programs, services or providers are not intended to be comprehensive statements of available options, programs, services, or providers.

You should investigate alternatives that may be more appropriate for a specific individual. ASGSA assumes no responsibility for the use made of any information published or provided by ASGSA.
