The RUSH Approach to Autism Care

RUSH's Autism Assessment, Research, Treatment and Services Center offers some of the most comprehensive autism services available anywhere. Our team is 100% focused on helping people with autism reach their fullest potential.

Whether you're a parent seeking help for your child or an adult seeking care for yourself, we're here for you. We offer a full range of diagnostic tests, treatments and opportunities to participate in research for people of all ages. And they're all based on the latest science about what works best for people with autism.

We know that an autism diagnosis can be life-changing. Over and over again, we've seen diagnosis and treatment mark the beginning of better chapters in our patients' lives. Our role is to address your challenges and celebrate your successes along the way.

RUSH Excellence in Autism Care

  • Expert psychological and neuropsychological testing: We offer a wide variety of diagnostic tests to evaluate each patient's unique needs. They're designed to give you answers about what's causing specific challenges, and which treatments are likely to work best.
  • Evidence-based treatments for people of all ages: Whatever your or your child's age, treatment will be based on the latest research about the needs of people with autism.
  • Opportunities to participate in research: Many of our providers are also researchers looking for new ways to help people with autism live rich, satisfying lives. Through our studies, we offer diagnostic and treatment options that may not otherwise be available. Participation in research has no cost.
  • Extensive support services: We can help you or your child thrive in school, find a job, transition to adulthood and deal with legal issues. And our autism resource directory is one of the most comprehensive available.
