Autism and Fetal Alcohol Syndrome Assessment - Interior Health Children's Assessment Network (IHCAN)

Condition Specific Support, Disability Services, Mental Health - Child & Youth, Services for Children, and Services for Youth

Provided by Interior Health Children's Assessment Network

A program that assesses individuals for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and FASD
This program:
  • Provides assessment and diagnosis clinic for children and youth living in the Interior Health region who demonstrate significant impairment in a number of domains of functioning, including development and learning, mental health, adaptive and social skills, or biomarkers such as prenatal substance exposure
  • Sees children under three assessment streams: Autism Spectrum Disorder, Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder, and Complex Child and Youth
IHCAN referrals must be driven by a pediatrician, psychiatrist, or medical specialist. The first step is to make an appointment with your family doctor. Once you do that, your doctor will either refer you to a specialist, or may refer you to a professional who is an expert in diagnosing ASD and similar conditions.

Please note that the organization's former name was "Interior Health Autism Assessment Network".
