Abstract
Abstract In response to the increasing number of referrals to the Children's Unit of Autistic and disturbed children between two and four years a therapeutic nursery group was established. By beginning treatment as early as two years it was hoped that further withdrawal could be arrested. Therapy was aimed at involving the children in a simulated family group with a male and female therapist and through rewarding play experiences to encourage learning and modify behaviour. Treatment procedures and outcome for the first twenty children referred to the programme over a three year period are described.
