Our mission is to assure that every child, family, and adult we serve is provided the highest quality training in functional skills and behavior intervention in a respectful, positive, and safe learning environment so they all reach their fullest potential in becoming successful, happy, and contributing members of the community. To bring our mission to life, the Center for Autism Education offers four core programs: Instructional Day Facility Darryl Strawberry Adult Day Services Behavior Consultation & Intervention Clinic Beyond Boundaries Preschool Program Through these programs we serve individuals ages two through adult, with caring yet specialized support options that provide exceptional school, work, home, and social readiness skills. In essence, we help those we serve find their dreams….and then live them. Through our programs, we wholeheartedly expect the following outcomes: --Children & adults will learn and practice positive behaviors to replace old, negative behaviors --Children & adults will learn communication skills that reduce the need for negative behaviors --Children & adults will be able to translate behavior across environments --Families will be supported and cross-trained to create continuity in their child’s life --Family stress will be reduced and a return to more normal family functioning will occur The Center for Autism Education’s goal is to provide the highest quality learning environment to the families we serve. We are committed to hiring the best leaders, teachers, behavior analysts, and support staff to maximize each student’s success. Our organization is bound by a shared commitment to hiring and retaining a talented, passionate, values driven team that engages in true partnerships with each family and community we serve. Together, we seek to provide the region with the lifelong gift of education.
