About The P.L.A.Y Project
The PLAY Project™ is a parent implemented, intensive early intervention program for young children with autism that is evidence-based.
Far too many children with autism are waiting for services.
Early intervention can make a profound difference in the life course of these children because their brains are developing at an incredible rate before the age of 5.
Children, including children with autism, learn best through play in the natural environment of the home. The secret is knowing how to engage the child in a playful way that promotes his or her development.
The PLAY Project is delivered by parents, using their relationship and knowledge of their child to promote engagement.
It is cost effective, easily implemented, and can serve large numbers of families efficiently.

Frequently Asked Questions
“Early Intervention” might be the provider’s way of describing services that they provide to babies or young children. However, it might also indicate that the provider is a vendor for your state’s publicly funded program. This means the services with this provider might be covered by your state!
The first step in accessing these free services from your state is to get an evaluation. The evaluation will help the state determine what services your child qualifies for, if any. You can find your state’s local EI program by clicking here.
When you contact your local center, say “I have concerns about my child’s development and I would like to have my child evaluated to find out if they are eligible for early intervention services.” They will ask screening questions and arrange for an evaluation, which is provided for free.
Even if a provider offers parent training, it may look different from one provider to another. For example, an in-home provider might conduct a parent training session directly following a therapy session with your child to help explain what they’ve been working on with your child. At larger organizations, you might have a support group of families who are dealing with similar issues.
