For families noticing early signs, the path to answers can feel intimidating — but it follows clear, manageable steps. It usually begins with screening, moves to a developmental evaluation conducted by qualified professionals, and, where appropriate, leads to a diagnosis and a support plan.
A diagnosis is not a label to fear — it is a key that unlocks access to services and support. At FreshStarts, we help families understand each step and connect the dots from evaluation to a real plan for their child.
