The Building Up Food Flexibility and Exposure Treatment (BUFFET) program helps autistic children 8-12 years old to be more flexible with trying new or non-preferred foods. BUFFET-Snack is a brief version of this treatment program. The goal of this study is to see if families can complete BUFFET-Snack and if they like it. BUFFET-Snack is a cognitive behavioral therapy. It will be a good fit for children who can communicate with full sentences and have some back-and-forth conversation skills.

PEDSnet and DBPNet seek youth (13-24), parents, and clinicians/scientists for the Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD) Research Prioritization Study. The goal is to develop a prioritized list of research questions that will immediately impact patient health outcomes, focusing on children with IDD.
Participants will answer open-ended questions on Viva Engage, a Microsoft platform, to share their thoughts and opinions. The study is entirely online, and parents and youth will be compensated for their time. To participate or learn more, complete our eligibility screener.

Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and Childrens National Hospital are studying daily living skills like cooking, cleaning, and money management and their impact on quality of life for autistic individuals. This study is funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and is led by Ben Yerys, PhD and Lauren Kenworthy, PhD.

The mission of SPARK is to ignite research at an unprecedented scale to improve lives by advancing our understanding of autism. To join this national autism research cohort, individuals with a professional diagnosis of autism and their biological family members will be asked to share information about their medical and family history, as well as provide a DNA sample.
