UD clinic offering ASD assessments with summer openings

Just wanted to share in case this helps any local families — the
Institute for Community Mental Health at UD is now offering comprehensive autism spectrum disorder (ASD) assessments.

They recently expanded services and have openings over the summer while students are out of school. ASD eval waitlists are usually really long (often a year or more), but wait times could be as low as a few weeks during the summer. Come fall, they'll likely increase again to around 6+ months.

They accept Medicare, Medicaid, and several private insurance plans, and they also have self-pay options plus need-based financial assistance.

Figured it was worth sharing since long waitlists can be such a huge barrier for families trying to get answers/support.
