Life-Centered Autism Treatment Outcomes

October 6, 2022 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am

Should autism treatment outcome metrics be condition-based or life-centered? Pediatrician Dr. Steven Merahn believes the ways we consider, measure, optimize, and value the impact of therapeutic interventions on autistic children and their families should be aligned with our aspirations for the life-course outcomes of all children: focused on outcomes of childhood, not “autism outcomes”. In this webinar, Dr. Merahn will present a set of options for radically new frameworks that looks beyond ‘response to treatment’ for autism-related symptomatology and disability, and embrace more integrated, non-categorical metrics reflective of the impact of interventions on life-course development, and are grounded in factors that enable individuals to flourish and succeed in their own way throughout their lives.
