Summary

This study looks at whether a parent coaching and family navigation program (Project AFECT) can help families of young children (ages 1-5) recently diagnosed with autism. The program aims to reduce parent stress, boost confidence, and connect families to early services. Researchers will compare families who receive coaching to those who don't, focusing on Hispanic/Latino, Black/African-American, and Medi-Cal insured families in specific California counties.
