When looking under this topic all the answers are from years ago. I am hoping their is more information available
In 2017. Does anyone have a recommendation for an inpatient residential facility for someone with high functioning autism and any anxiety disorder.

Does anyone know of any hospital based facility in the US or elsewhere, that has an inpatient residential program (6+ weeks or longer) that will treat young adults/ adults with High Functioning Aspergers for mental health psychiatric issues? I cannot find ANY hospital in the US that will treat my 23yr.old daughter who is suffering with an eating disorder and obsessive-compulsive spectrum issues ~because~ she has Asperger's.

I see the label HFA and I just wonder how it differs from Aspergers.

I am looking for any Asperger Support groups for adults to provide a level of socialization for my adult son.

What do you encourage for independent play. Be have drawing and puzzles down but can't seem to find anything else she'll take interest in. She's almost 3 and electronics are not an option at this time.

I've googled this question and read the medical answer's which were vague so I was wondering what, as parents, you feel the difference between Aspergers and autism is? Is Aspergers the same as HFA?

I read about how some parents say they have Asperger's and have kids that have autism but I was curious if there are parents out there that would not be characterized as having Asperger's type of autism but are parents. It would a long time before my ASD daughter would have kids and wonder if anyone has been through that experience.

Does anybody know about any waivers or grants offered for children with Aspergers syndrome? Something that could be used to pay for a companion or respite care? I know HCBS waivers cover that...but not sure if they do for Aspergers. The child was Medicad and lives in Florida. Thanks!
