Project SKIP Benefits for Clinicians
Millions of children in the U.S. have social-emotional, cognitive, and developmental issues. Yet most children, even those who see clinicians regularly, are never screened for these problems.
Project SKIP is a practical, inexpensive process that medical practices of any size can use to screen children as young as two years for social-emotional, cognitive, and developmental issues—including autism spectrum disorders. Through a multi-tiered approach and easy-to-use customized instruments, Project SKIP screens more comprehensively for issues, identifies why difficulties may be occurring, and provides the framework for designing effective, research-based interventions.
Key Clinician Benefits through Project SKIP:
- Access to scientifically-validated screeners in your office at any time
- Value-added service available through clinician practices to parents of clients or patients
- Comprehensive implementation of American Academy of Pediatric AAP guidelines for screening that assist in the generation of evidence-based recommendations for interventions
- Mechanism to collect feedback from multiple parties that experience a child in multiple environments
Clinicians are encouraged to learn more about how Project SKIP works and to contact for additional information on how their practice can provide a valuable new service to clients and patients.
