This practical, highly accessible guide answers parents' and professionals' questions about teaching children with autism spectrum disorders at home. The book helps parents decide whether to homeschool and guides them through the process of beginning and maintaining an effective homeschool program. All the essential questions are addressed, such as:

How do you know if homeschooling is right for you and your child?
Which homeschool program is best for the child's learning style and needs?
How should a family get started?
What is the best way to address social, behavioral, and organizational skills when teaching a child with ASD?
When should you transition back to a traditional public school setting?

The book also contains tips and suggestions from real-life parents who have successfully homeschooled their children with ASD and includes lists of helpful resources for homeschoolers.
