Among the many questions I get asked, one seems to always come up again and again and it’s “what can be done to prevent autism?” And the truth of the matter is that there isn’t any research to prove or disprove that preventing autism is possible by doing something specifically. Treating autism aggressively can help reduce, reverse, or eliminate many autism symptoms. With intensive behavioral intervention, up to 47% of children with a diagnosis of autism can even become “indistinguishable from their peers” or recover from autism as first suggested more than 3 decades ago (Lovaas, 1987). The general rule of thumb is that catching autism early and then acting upon it can help the odds.

Dr. Mary Barbera "fell" into the world of autism in 1999 when her firstborn son, Lucas, was diagnosed with autism one day before his third birthday. In the last 2 decades, Mary went from almost nothing about autism to becoming a Board Certified Behavior Analyst, writing a bestseller, The Verbal Behavior Approach (now translated into more than 10 languages) and obtaining a PhD. with an in-depth knowledge of some of the best ABA autism strategies. In 2015, Mary began her first online course on autism that has already been purchased from parents and professionals in more than 45 countries and now sells 3 courses online. With more than 2 decades in the world of autism, both as a parent and as a professional, Mary is in a unique position to help you, especially if you live or work with a child with autism who also has delays or language disorders. Its mission is to change things for 2 million children with autism (or signs of autism) by 2020 through online training and advocacy.
