The Ann Arbor Center for Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics provides diagnostic assessment and treatment services for children with developmental and behavioral concerns including Autism, ADHD, learning difficulties and developmental delays.

The Ann Arbor Center is also home of the original P.L.A.Y. Project, an evidence-based early intervention program for young children with autism (18 months – 6 years). The P.L.A.Y. Project takes a playful approach, costs much less than ABA and VB, and is effective. Under the direct supervision of Rick Solomon, MD, an autism specialist with more than 20 years experience, home consultants coach families to be their child's best PLAY partner, allowing the child to climb up the developmental ladder and reach their full potential.
