Summary

Early intervention for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), particularly with parent involvement, is beneficial for both children and their families. However, few interventions have been rigorously tested which explicitly address parent and family outcomes. This study will test the effectiveness of "The Incredible Years Parent Program for Autism Spectrum and Language Delays" (IY-ASD) program for parents of children with ASD ages 2-8 in a community-based setting, compared to a parent support program, "Circle of Parents." The investigators will assess parent stress, caregiver coping, child behavior, parenting practices of participants. In addition, the investigators will report on participants' satisfaction with IY-ASD, through parent interviews and satisfaction surveys.
