There has been a notable increase in the identification and diagnosis of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and autism spectrum disorders (ASD). In fact, autism rates have skyrocketed from 1 in 10,000 in the 1970s to as high as 1 in 30—or even 1 in 20—in some regions today. This alarming trend raises significant concerns about the underlying factors contributing to these increases, as it suggests that a growing number of children may face challenges in their development and daily functioning.
There is, therefore, an urgent need for comprehensive research to explore the potential causes of this rise, as well as the development of effective interventions and support systems to assist affected families and ensure that these children can thrive in their educational and social environments. And today, I'm joined by the incredible Beth Lambert, director of the Documenting Hope Project, who is a passionate advocate for children’s health and a true pioneer in the field. Her dedication to uncovering innovative solutions for kids with autism and ADHD is nothing short of inspiring.
