Summary
This online article from Raising Children Network's Parent Guide to ASD Therapies discusses the evidence base for facilitated communication (FC), an intervention intended to build communication skills in children on the autism spectrum. The article concludes that there is no evidence to suggest that FC is effective, and its use may be harmful.

Raising Children Network is an information resource maintained by a partnership of agencies in Australia. Its website offers “evidence-based content you can trust on hundreds of topics about raising children and looking after yourself as a parent.” [Website]
