SUMMARY:New Vanderbilt Autism Clinic provides one-point entry
DESCRIPTION:Vanderbilt University is making it easy for families and professionals to find autism services by introducing the Vanderbilt Autism Clinic &ndash\; a single helpline staffed by an autism expert who can make referrals for what's needed.\n\nVanderbilt recruited Sarah Zombek to serve as family services coordinator. She held a similar position at Massachusetts General Hospital in an autism clinic with a national reputation for family-centered care.\n\n&quot\;Sarah has exceptional experience and expertise in autism spectrum disorders\, and we are so fortunate to have her help us launch the Vanderbilt Autism Clinic\,&quot\; said Wendy Stone\, professor of pediatrics and psychology and director of the Vanderbilt Kennedy Treatment and Research Institute for Autism Spectrum Disorders (TRIAD).\n\nThe Vanderbilt Autism Clinic is a gateway to a broad range of Vanderbilt clinical and research programs and resources\, as well as those in the community\, state and region. It serves families\, caregivers\, clinicians\, educators\, and others looking for a single\, reliable source to find the help needed.\n\nAvailable resources include autism-specialized diagnostic\, medical\, early intervention\, educational\, behavioral\, and counseling services for children\, adolescents and adults with autism spectrum disorders.\n\nThe Vanderbilt Autism Clinic is a collaboration between the Vanderbilt Kennedy Center and Vanderbilt Medical Center. Vanderbilt is a member of the national Autism Treatment Network\, a 15-site network of medical centers dedicated to establishing medical standards of care for children with autism.\n\nTo contact the Vanderbilt Autism Clinic\, call 322-7565 (local)\, toll-free (877) ASD-VUMC (273-8862)\, or e-mail autismclinic@vanderbilt.edu.\n\nMedia Contact\: Courtney Taylor\, (615) 322-5658\ncourtney.taylor@vanderbilt.edu\n\n\n\n
