Autism Resources in Dover, Delaware

Dover, Delaware's capital, sits at the center of Kent County and central Delaware. Families here have real local support — pediatric therapy clinics, ABA providers, the John S. Charlton School's Delaware Autism Program classrooms, and an Autism Delaware presence in the Dover area — but it's honest to say that Delaware's deepest specialty capacity sits north, in Wilmington and New Castle County, and at Nemours Children's Health (historically Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children). Many central and southern Delaware families travel north, or into the Philadelphia area, for some specialized diagnosis and care. This guide walks through what's available locally, what's statewide, and when it makes sense to travel.
