Layperson Summary:

This article describes the Camelot Schools program in DesPlaines, Illinois in the U.S. In this program, children with autism live at the school and receive child-centered therapy. While the schools believe in early intervention, they also know that not all children receive the treatment they need at an early age. Therefore, some children with autism reach late childhood with severe problems that are difficult for a family to manage at home. The Camelot program is best for children who always need to be watched.
