Questions about family support and guidance
Does family guidance replace the child’s sessions?
Not necessarily. It may complement the plan or be an appropriate step on its own, depending on the family’s and child’s goals.
How can I prepare for a family guidance appointment?
Prepare a short list of priorities, questions and examples from everyday routines. Ask the team who should attend, the appointment length and fees, and whether previous reports are needed and how to share them.
Can I enquire before choosing a program for my child?
You can contact the center to explain your family’s needs and ask where to begin. The team clarifies whether a consultation, assessment or another service is the appropriate next step. You do not have to select the pathway yourself; use the contact and appointments page to enquire.
What does autism family support and guidance involve?
FAD’s family guidance helps families understand goals, discuss the plan and connect skills to everyday situations. Prepare questions about communication, learning and routines, and ask who should attend and how follow-up works. The family guide to individual plans offers practical discussion questions.
Is family support the same as a child’s speech or ABA session?
Each service has its own scope. This page addresses family involvement and understanding the plan, while the speech and language therapy and ABA service pages describe their areas. Ask how guidance is coordinated with the child’s services and what each appointment covers.
