I appreciate great research, well founded studies with clinically relevant recommendations that can be utilized by therapists and consumers. The topic of Bilingualism as it relates to autism or even relevant research with strong implications for bi or tri language acquisition in people with autism is a subject not well researched. However, the answer of "No, use one language only preferably English" is often communicated to families (typically Spanish speaking families) whose children have a diagnosis of autism.
