The Child & Adolescent Diagnostic and Consultation Clinic (ICD-CADCC) is a specialty clinic of ICD designed to meet the diverse community needs for expanded evaluation and consultation services from highly qualified experts.
Diagnostic Evaluations
ICD-CADCC accepts referrals for diagnostic evaluations from school districts or by parent referral for children and adolescents who are between 12 months and 17 years 11 months old. ICD-CADCC’s specialization is evaluation of autism and associated neurodevelopmental profiles, but we are also able to evaluate for ADHD, learning disabilities (dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia), and a subset of associated mood and anxiety disorders that commonly occur in childhood. This clinic is separate from any of ICD's New York State Education Department (NYSED) approved special education services, including preschool evaluations, and is meant to support families who are not able to access diagnostic evaluations through NYSED, the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH or Early Intervention), or medical facility opportunities for care for various reasons.

School districts or parents who are interested in pursuing an evaluation through this process should contact icdcadcc@binghamton.edu or call 607-777-2829 for more information.
We are unable to accept physician referrals and cannot bill insurance. All payments are made by check or money order following completion of various steps in the evaluation process. Families who pursue private pay evaluation with us are welcome to request an invoice to submit to their insurance company for reimbursement, should they choose to do so.
Family Consultation Services
Our family consultation services are specially designed bridge programs to help families who need additional support in specific areas of need. these services are designed to help families who are awaiting access to more intensive service options elsewhere or for families who are looking for general support to be more informed partners in their child's care and growth. We pair families with experts from our team in various licensed disciplines with an aim to educate and empower children and adolescents and their caregivers to understand and plan for their unique needs. This partnership also creates the opportunity to help families learn about resources in the community that can assist them on their journey.
- The Consultation for Health and Eating Wellness (CHEW) program is a consultation service created to form a bridge for parents and their children between the ages of 12 months to 12 years old to move from a picky or selective eating toward a more flexible eating repertoire. We specialize in supporting children with neurodevelopmental profiles (autism, ADHD, and associated conditions) as well as broad developmental delays related to feeding health that focuses on family education and strategies that can be implemented in the home. No prior training required! For additional information, please complete the ICD-CADCC CHEW Contact Request Form for Services, or you can contact us at 607-777-2829.

School Consultation Services
ICD-CADCC contracts with school districts to provide specific, time-limited consultation
for individual students or teaching teams, as well as classroom-wide or program-wide
needs. Consultation topics include management of instructional supports, expert training
in effective techniques to support individuals with ASD, and meeting the needs of
children with ASD in the district setting. Services may include didactic training
and workshops, on-site team coaching, expert therapeutic direct guidance to
the student, and recommendations for guided reading and additional training resources.
The aim of ICD-CADCC consultation is to support districts in serving students in their district by bringing additional supports to their talented teams rather than considering a change of student placement as the only alternative to meet a need. We have had numerous successful consultation cases with many local and rural districts in the Southern Tier of NY within the last several years, and we are excited to continue building those relationships in support of the students and staff in our school systems.
Preliminary meetings will be scheduled with interested parties to determine if the scope of the request is within our bounds of service, what deliverables will be generated and goals achieved by the consultation, and any schedules or follow-up plans along with associated fees. School districts who are interested in our consultation services should reach out to us at icdcadcc@binghamton.edu or 607-777-2829.
