Questioning the possibility of autism in your child? “Questioning Autism?” is a free, easy-to-use educational app designed to help parents and caregivers understand more about autism, and to provide a starting point for conversations with pediatricians.

Answer just 12 simple questions — adding notes if you like — and you’ll be better educated about the signs of autism. When you’re done, you can share your observations with others including your child’s pediatrician.

“Questioning Autism?” was inspired by one father’s difficulties explaining concerns about his son to his pediatrician, and the resulting delays getting critical help as early as possible. Hoping other parents wouldn’t have to have the same experience, he envisioned an app that would help inform parents about autism.
