The Autism Spectrum Institute provides supportive education programs and trains pre-service and teacher educators as well as parents and families of children and youth with autism spectrum disorders. The Institute provides a multidisciplinary network of consultants that can assist in identifying, selecting, and implementing effective programs, a lending library, and information to families and professionals through workshops and inservice trainings. It will also serve as a coordinating site for classroom-, home-, and clinic-based research with an emphasis on the empirical validation of intervention strategies.
