Autism Spectrum Treatment and Research (ASTAR) Center is a non-profit organization established to address the overwhelming need for clinical research, accurate diagnoses and appropriate treatments for those living with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). For Northwest families wrestling with the challenges of Autism Spectrum Disorders and a lack of available services, ASTAR’s coordinated approach integrates the disciplines necessary to treat the whole child.

Through the programs at ASTAR Center we are able to:

* Increase the number of overall diagnostic & treatment services available in
  the northwest, providing children with ASD earlier detection and intervention
* Improve diagnostic and treatment services through coordination among
  providers
* Contribute to the common body of knowledge through medical and
  educational quantitative data collection and clinical research
* Provide families with hope; access to resources, a roadmap for
  treatment and ultimately, a brighter future.
