Summary
This study tests a 12-week telehealth program called tele-ImPACT for infants aged 6-24 months who have an older sibling with autism, putting them at higher risk for autism or language delays. The program teaches parents strategies to support their child's social communication and language development. Researchers will measure changes in social communication and language skills to see if the program is effective and acceptable to families.
