Florida Tech center puts Brevard on the map in treatment of puzzling disorder
ADVERTISEMENT

Early diagnosis and treatment of autism sometimes make the difference between an individual needing a lifetime of supervision and care or more independence.

Soon, that will be possible for more Brevard County residents with the disorder, thanks to an Autism Center to be built on the Florida Tech campus in Melbourne.

Autism, a spectrum of disorders that cause impairment in social interactions and communication, affects about 1 in 150 children, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
