The purpose of the Autism Resource Team is to provide parents, teachers, and agency staff with informational resources regarding the unique learning needs of children with autism or children with learning styles consistent with autism. The team also provides technical assistance in the design and implementation of educational programming and supports for children with Individual Education Plans (IEP) or Individual Family Service Plans (IFSP) per the request of the Educational Team.
