ASD Reading

 ASD Reading

ASD Reading is a patented, research-based method for teaching children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and other significant learning disabilities to read, write and comprehend. Current reading education relies on methods that do not work for children on the spectrum with the result that the majority never gain the ability to read with fluency or understanding. However, the innovative content and methods of ASD Reading enable children to achieve success - even when they are non-verbal (i.e., non-speaking).

The program was designed by Dr. Marion Blank, a world-renowned developmental psychologist, who created and served as the Co-Director of the Columbia University Developmental Neuropsychiatry Program for Autism and Related Disorders.
