Because early social development is a major predictor of outcomes for children with autism, the researchers at Kennedy Krieger aim to improve social and communication skills through comprehensive, behavioral intervention programs targeting social development. Dr. Rebecca Landa, director of the Center for Autism and Related Disorders at the Kennedy Krieger Institute, recently published a study that shows early intervention activities performed with very young children with autism can improve the way they connect and socialize with others.
