In this article, we will present the progress of the RADAP project (Guidance Network for Early Autism Diagnosis), which provides professionals working in the field with training and support concerning their network’s mode of operation regarding the setup of early detection and guidance for neurodevelopmental disorders—including autism spectrum disorder. This project is financed by the Philippe Sibieude and John Bost Foundations and currently takes place in three areas of France. It includes an assessment study of the network’s efficiency concerning the lowering of the age of early detection of signs of risk, as well as the time between identifying those signs and setting up appropriate treatment.
