ASD
Successes:
The wait time between a positive Stage 2 screen and a diagnostic assessment
appointment (Stage 3) is only 17.7 days.
Our numbers suggest that a minimum of 7% of children receiving EI are likely to meet
criteria for ASD.
We have held several trainings in the STAT, our Stage 2 screener, training a total of 23 EI
providers in this play-based assessment.

Strategies:
(a) A website was created with information
about ASD and the screening process,
(b) Collaboratively developed a script for EI
providers to broach the subject of autism
with families,
(c) Hold regular trouble-shooting meetings
with providers
