Having co-founded, grown and sold one of the first multi-state autism services platform, she offers unmatched expertise and decades of experience to enhance operational efficiencies, elevate clinical excellence, and support investor scalability within the autism market.

How do we measure outcomes in autism?

  • Individual progress is compared to baseline data taken at intake
  • Group measures examine how many patients in an age group or across the company are meeting progress goals
  • Norm-referenced, criterion-referenced assessments and quality of life measures
