If a child has a significant change in his entrance treatment program e.g.; significant change in medication, school placement during the study, the PI in consultation with Advisory Committee members, Dr. Rebecca Landa and Dr. Andrew Zimmerman, both autism research experts, will determine if the child is appropriate to remain in the study. Parents who are not proficient in English will not be included in the study.
