National Autism Indicators Reports

Mission and Purpose

To make a difference, research must reach those who need it. The National Autism Indicators Report series presents our research findings in a clearly communicated, open-access, online format to speed the delivery of information to decision-makers while maintaining very high standards of scientific credibility.

Our traditional National Autism Indicators Reports provide detailed information and statistics on key topics. The Policy Insight series of reports provide an overview and key statistics for a topic, a policy brief, and resources for readers. These Reports and Publications are produced in collaboration with the Policy and Analytics Center, where funding for research initiatives and data are based.
