Our application process features
a number of steps designed to ensure that children receive
a comprehensive evaluation to determine the treatment
program that will best meet the needs of each individual
child and family. Our Service Coordinators work closely
with families to complete the application process. To
speak with a Service Coordinator, families should contact
our Intake Department at
608-288-9040, send an email to weap@wiautism.com,
or click here to complete the online
contact form.
Families applying for services will
share information about their children with the Service
Coordinator over
the phone and will be sent an application packet. This
packet contains information about our program and several
forms that need to be completed and returned.
Upon receipt
of this paperwork, the Service Coordinator will arrange
an Initial Screening appointment for the child and
family. This appointment will feature
evaluation by one of our licensed Clinical Psychologists including history,
initial diagnosis or confirmation of diagnosis, assessment of skill level in
a
variety
of
areas,
and
recommendations
for treatment.
In addition to the Initial Screening, recent tests of language, adaptive skills
and IQ are also required for application. This testing is available by appointment
in our clinics with one of our psychologists. Testing may also be completed outside
our clinic and submitted by the family for our review. For a list of tests that
we
currently accept, please contact the Intake Department.
Applying for funding through the state waiver system is a separate process from
application to our program. To start the process of applying for funding, contact
your county and ask to be connected to the department responsible for autism
treatment services. Our Service Coordinators are familiar with the waiver and
can assist in identifying contact information for autism treatment services in
your county. |
