2015 Austin Resource Guide - Autism Society of Central Texas

Transcription

Austin Area
Autism Resource Guide
Sixth Edition
July 2015
1
This Resource Guide began as a joint project between the Autism Society of
Greater Austin (now the Autism Society of Central Texas) and the Austin Area
Task Force of the Texas Council on Autism and Pervasive Developmental
Disorders (PDD). The charge of the Task Force is to regularly provide feedback
to the Texas Council regarding needs of individuals with autism and PDD in the
Austin area and recommendations for their state plan. After the two groups
compiled the first edition of the guide in 2008, the Autism Society took over the
maintenance and distribution of the document.
The Autism Society of Central Texas is an affiliate of the Autism Society of
America. The Autism Society has straightforward mission: to improve the lives of
all affected by autism. In Central Texas, the Autism Society strives to do this by
advocating for the education and training of parents and professionals involved
in educating and caring for persons with autism; helping develop a better
understanding of the challenges of persons with autism and their families by
serving as a clearinghouse for information about autism; and, most importantly,
providing parents with pertinent and current information so they may be better
advocates for their sons and daughters with autism.
Please note that reference in this manual to any treatment or therapy option or
to any program, service or treatment provider is not an endorsement of those
treatments, therapy options, programs, services or providers by the Autism
Society or the Task Force. In addition, such references to treatment or therapy
options, programs, services or providers are not intended to be comprehensive
statements of all those that are available. We recommend that readers
investigate other resources to obtain additional information for individual
applications. The Autism Society and the Task Force assume no responsibility for
the use made of any information published in this manual.
The volunteers who have compiled this resource guide have made every effort to
ensure that this list is accurate, but we recognize that some of this information
may change. Please help us by e-mailing any additions, changes, corrections, or
suggestions to [email protected].
Thank you in advance for helping future users of this list.
