What Sets Us Apart
The landscape of autism care is undergoing a significant transformation, with private equity firms increasingly implementing in-house assessments for individuals with autism. This emerging trend raises profound legal, ethical, and moral concerns within our community. The evaluation and treatment of developmental disorders should be governed by established laws and conducted by licensed and qualified healthcare professionals. However, private firms may prioritize financial gain over adherence to professional standards, thereby jeopardizing the accuracy and integrity of assessments. Our association stands firmly against these practices and is dedicated to advocating for ethical and legally compliant assessment procedures.
We believe that individuals with autism deserve comprehensive, unbiased assessments conducted by experts with the appropriate credentials. Our mission is to safeguard the well-being of those affected by autism by promoting community-driven solutions and prioritizing local ownership in providing autism care. By ensuring that all member companies are owned by Illinois residents, we uphold a commitment to the values, needs, and best interests of our local communities.
