Education
Building Your Mind
The goal for each student participating in our education program is to focus on and develop a reliable system of communication, behavior regulation, and organization for them to gain access to their families, friends and the community, and to build a foundation that will support as independent and self-reliant of a life as possible. Our COPES™ program method supports the core deficits of Autism Spectrum Disorder through best practice approaches and interventions.
Once these core competencies are established, our program focuses on building life skills that have meaning and relevance toward independent living, job skills and social relationships. Students will have a future filled with possibilities, self worth and a high degree of social participation and community involvement.
