    This clinical guideline has been developed to guide and support speech pathologists in their delivery of evidence-based assessment and intervention to individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and their families.

    This clinical guideline has been developed to guide and support speech pathologists in their delivery of evidence-based assessment and intervention to individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and their families. The specific aims of the guideline are to define (a) the speech pathologists’ scope of practice in working with clients with ASD and their families, (b) the principles of best practice based on the current research evidence, and (c) the knowledge and skills that speech pathologists require to screen, assess, diagnose, provide intervention to, and consult with clients with ASD and their families. Speech Pathology Australia recognises that social-communication impairments are fundamental to ASD and that speech pathologists play an essential role in assessing and addressing these needs. The Association acknowledges the complex nature of ASD and recognises that speech pathologists require continuing professional development and appropriate supervision and support to work effectively in this area of practice. In addition, the Association acknowledges the crucial role that speech pathologists play in supporting individuals with ASD and their families, and recognises that the increased demand for speech pathology services is likely to continue to grow, due to greater recognition of ASD, growing public awareness of the importance of early speech pathology intervention, and the partial removal of financial barriers to individuals with ASD and their families accessing services following recent Government initiatives.
