In Canada, you need to wait over 2 years to get any sort of treatment, because of the long lines. My friend has 2 autistic children, who both suffered and continue to suffer because of inadequate funding. And because of the 2 year wait, these types of diagnoses are useless, because they won't get funding until much later. It's a travesty.

But here in CA, if you have Kaiser, apparently they have a gold medal autism treatment program, according to a doctor that deals with child developmental disorders. It's because they got sued several years ago, and the result was they now put every child in a top autism treatment program.
