About Us: Longmont Autism Spectrum Disorder Therapy
Our Journey Begins
Founded in 2017, Longmont Autism Spectrum Disorder Therapy (LASDT) was established with a simple yet powerful mission: to shed light on and bridge the information gap surrounding autism spectrum disorder (ASD) within our community. We believe that knowledge is empowering, especially when it comes to understanding neurodiversity.
Our Story
The idea for LASDT emerged from the personal experiences of our founders, who had witnessed the challenges and unique strengths of individuals on the autism spectrum. Recognizing the lack of accessible and reliable resources, they set out to create a one-stop online destination for all things related to ASD in Longmont and beyond.
Over the years, we’ve grown from a modest blog to a thriving online community, becoming a trusted source for accurate and unbiased information on autism spectrum disorder therapy and support. Our team is dedicated to providing valuable insights, sharing success stories, and offering practical guidance to families, caregivers, and individuals navigating the ASD journey.
Our Purpose and Values
Purpose: To empower individuals and families touched by autism spectrum disorder through education, advocacy, and community building.
Core Values:
- Accuracy: We strive for excellence in delivering factual and reliable information based on the latest research.
- Unbiased Perspective: LASDT provides an objective view, ensuring diverse perspectives are represented to foster a deeper understanding of ASD.
- Inclusivity: Our content is designed to be accessible and welcoming to all members of the autism community.
- Community Support: We aim to create a supportive network where individuals can connect, share experiences, and find encouragement.
Filling the Information Void
The internet offers a wealth of information, but when it comes to ASD, not all sources are created equal. Many websites lack depth or present biased views, leaving families and caregivers unsure where to turn for reliable guidance. LASDT was born out of a need for a trusted, comprehensive resource that provides evidence-based insights into various therapy approaches, educational strategies, and community resources.
Serving Our Readers
Our target audience includes parents, guardians, educators, therapists, and adults on the autism spectrum themselves. We offer a range of content tailored to different needs:
- Informative articles covering various ASD topics from diagnosis to adult advocacy.
- Personal stories and interviews with individuals and families who have navigated unique challenges.
- Practical guides and resources for finding local support groups, therapists, and educational programs.
- News updates on research advancements, policy changes, and community events.
We encourage reader engagement through comments, sharing personal experiences, and providing feedback to help us improve our content. Your involvement is vital to shaping the direction of LASDT and ensuring we remain relevant and helpful.
