Help for the Child with Asperger's Syndrome : A Parent's Guide to Negotiating the Social Service Maze Paperback / softback
by Gretchen Mertz Cowell
Paperback / softback
Description
Parents of children diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome frequently find themselves embarking on an exhausting and disheartening hunt for the services and interventions that their child needs - and is entitled to.
Gretchen Mertz presents a readable and comprehensive parent's guide to developing an intervention program for a child with AS. Beginning with the search for a diagnosis, she outlines an accessible overview of the helpful and appropriate services that are available, how to find them and get funding for them, what to expect of them, and how to evaluate them.
The issues raised and the information given will be pertinent to any parent of a child that has (or may have) AS.
It will also be an invaluable resource for social workers, psychologists and psychiatrists who wish to find or offer appropriate support for children with Asperger's Syndrome.
