Research Study Description

My name is Megan Streetman, and I’m the Recruitment & Outreach Coordinator for the Early Social Development Lab at the University of South Carolina. Our lab is dedicated to research on the early identification of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) in infants — work that aims to support earlier intervention and better long-term outcomes for children and their families.

We’re currently recruiting families for an in-home infant study and are seeking newborns 6 months old or younger who have an older full biological sibling diagnosed with — or being evaluated for — autism.

Study Highlights:
– Based in Columbia, SC — we travel to families within a 3-hour radius
– Includes in-home developmental assessments
– Families receive free developmental feedback
– Up to $240 in compensation for full participation
– Refer a friend and earn $20 if they qualify and enroll — your friend will receive $20, too!

If you or someone you know might be eligible and interested, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Thank you for helping us make a difference!
