BASIC DESCRIPTION OF AUTISM

Autism is not a human body disease, but a developmental disorder of brain function. You are diagnosed with autism at birth, but you start noticing the symptoms around age three and will continue throughout your life. Autism is three times more likely to affect males than females. Although there is no cure, appropriate early educational intervention may improve social development and reduce undesirable behaviors.
