Summary

The prevalence of autism in Taiwan has been significantly increasing over this decade. Though early intervention program and special and resource education have been applied in helping individuals with autism in Taiwan, studies regarding autism in this country so far focus mostly on the prevalence and demographics in restricted populations, diagnostic category, single case observation, and clinical research. Although the data of needs of care and intervention models in autism emerges in Western countries, there is a lack of such data in Taiwan. Due to the high prevalence, long-term impairing and lack of effective prevention, detection, and treatment for autism, tremendous of the resource is needed to be given to individuals with autism. However, the investigators do not know the gap between the need and provided care in currently. This study aims to understand the current state of needs of care and intervention in autism from different stakeholders to inform and improve the health care policies for autism and to establish a holistic care/intervention model for autism in Taiwan.
