Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Intervention- My Autism Passport AppExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Families will be given the application to upload to their mobile device and will be provided information on how to use the App by the research team. The contact information for a member of the research team who will be able to provide technical support will be available on the consent form. Families will use the mobile application for a total of 18 months. Given that this is a pragmatic trial of a tool that tracks services, it also may be used to communicate service access to other providers.
Group II: Control-Standard of careActive Control1 Intervention
Families in the control group will continue with standard of clinical care, and receive any of the usual supports their clinic and region provides, including access to physicians, service navigators, social workers, nurses, etc.
