Autism, How Common is it?
For many years autism was rare - occurring in just five children per 10,000 live births. However, since the early 1990's, the rate of autism has increased exponentially around the world with figures as high as 60 per 10,000. Boys outnumber girls four to one. In 2007, the Centers for Disease Control reported that 1 in 150 children is diagnosed with autism.(2007ARI) As you can very well see autism is a serious problem and needs to be diagnosed as early as possible in order to give that person the best chance of having an extraordinarily normal life with all opportunities that everyone else has. That is why I have opened World of Difference Learning Service. I provide some of those early intervention strategies that these kids so desperately need. We also work with school aged and adult learners because it is never too late to improve communication, academic, and social skills which they will be able to use for the rest of their lives. We have just moved into the tri-county area (Pt. St. Lucie, Indian River, and Martin) and we are looking to help any family that is looking for tutoring services, social groups, and summer camp activities for their loved one and/or friend with autism and developmental disabilities. World of Difference Learning Services is in no way trying to break your bank, we are offering the most affordable services in all of Florida.
