Abstract

The aim of the present work is to evaluate the role of multidispensary program in improvement of children with autism. The sample of the study was 15 autistic children. The children were subjected (before and after the program) to evaluation of motor skills, languages behaviour, social skills, and life skills. There was a significant important change in motor skills, language skills, and social skills after the program. The nature of autistic spectrum disorder has significant implications for approaches to education and intervention.
