I have a 6 year old that I think may be 2e, aspergers & gifted or just gifted. I am not sure. A friend recommended Harbor Regional Center for assessment. They are a CA state run program and their services are free (which my husband really likes). HRC assesses for learning disabilities and autism spectrum issues. They do not test for giftedness. But, when I talk to the person at HRC, she said they will test IQ and achievement. They are generally looking for mental retardation, clearly not our issue, but she said they will not cap the test at a certain level. She also said they have tested gifted children who are on the spectrum and receive services for the autism at HRC. Does anyone have experience with assessments at HRC? Thanks. [I have posted this discussion in Assessments, Region, and 2e forums.]
