Families deserve fast, clear answers and support when they have concerns about their child’s development. Waiting months or even years for an ethical autism diagnosis is hard to bear. With BY YOUR SIDE, you receive the genuine answers and compassionate support you need within weeks, with a full diagnostic report, and all for free.
We have partnered with EarliPoint to provide no-cost, minimal-wait, low-stress, ethical Autism evaluations in our communities, using innovative, FDA-approved testing technology.
Lengthy wait times for a proper autism assessment have long been the norm. Yet research shows that early access to therapies such as Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) gives children with Autism the best opportunity to build essential skills, including social, communication, and school readiness, as well as everyday life skills, which leads to the greatest likelihood of long-term independence and success.

The BYS team will support you in determining your path forward and beginning intervention services.
Children ages 16 months to 8 years are currently approved by the FDA to be tested with the EarliPoint system. You do not need a doctor’s referral to be tested, but you may want to speak with your pediatrician if you have any questions about autism or your child’s development.
BY YOUR SIDE is offering autism assessments at no cost to qualified families. Therefore, we do not go through your insurance company for the testing. To find out if your child qualifies for the evaluation, please call our Intake Team at (630) 381-1925.
We have partnered with EarliPoint to provide ethical Autism evaluations using innovative, FDA-approved eye-tracking biomarker technology. This diagnostic tool is designed to provide objective, individualized results related to your child’s specific strengths and areas of need. This information is interpreted by a qualified clinician and is combined with your child’s developmental history, clinical observation, and standardized measures to determine the evaluation outcome.
One of the best qualities about EarliPoint is that it’s an enjoyable, short, and stress-free experience for your child! They are asked to watch a series of one-minute videos, up to 12 videos total, and that’s it!
While they’re watching the videos, EarliPoint is collecting thousands of points of data and using that to determine the child’s likelihood of being autistic.
This data is then sent to our partner clinical psychologist, who combines it with their own testing and observation. EarliPoint data helps to strengthen clinical judgment.
Every child who goes through assessment will receive a full diagnostic report, whether they’re assessed to have autism spectrum disorder or not. This report will be delivered in a review meeting by the licensed clinical psychologist who conducted the virtual testing and will be yours to keep.
