Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder Receiving Evaluation by 36 months of age - Phylicia B.
As seen on the graph, the red dotted line is the target amount of children to be evaluated by 2020. The only group to pass that target was the orange block (White only) and the amount goes down in two years. The black block (Hispanic or Latino), had the lowest rates of evaluation, and fluctuated up and down from 2006 to 2010. The green block (Black or African) is the only group that does not go down over the course of the four years. Although it does not surpass the target rate, it has a steadier growth rate.
