Preschool Integration

As your child prepares for an academic environment, they’ll have the opportunity to join a preschool classroom of their peers with support from their therapist.

Because this transition happens under one roof, the care and support are seamless.

Vocational and Daily Living Skills for Adults

Many autism centers don’t offer support beyond the teen years. Story is different.

We know not every child has the same journey and needs. Your child can stay in the comfort of a familiar environment and explore:

  • Daily living skills

  • Vocational training

  • Community outings
