AHA is a New York organization providing support and information for families, individuals and professionals affected by Aspergers Syndrome, High Functioning Autism, and Other Pervasive Developmental Disorders.

Effective treatment of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) is in its infancy, and the search for effective treatment is made more difficult because each individual on the autism spectrum is unique. There is no "one size fits all" treatment. A myriad of interventions are being offered, including a wide variety of medications, therapies, educational methodologies and nutritional approaches.

While many of these methods reflect sound current practice, many of them do not. A parent's urgency to take action may be exploited by providers of unsound practices that can be costly, time-consuming and physically demanding.

Through our support programs, website, mailing list and our newsletter, On The Spectrum, we make every effort to provide objective, up-to-date, reliable, evidence based information, and urge you to thoughtfully evaluate any proposed treatment.
