The Institute for Learning Centered Education
AUTISM INITIATIVE
The Institute for Learning Centered Education uniquely advocates as an organization for people with autism and those who care about them.
THE AUTISM INITIATIVE IS DIFFERENT There are organizations doing excellent research; and others who are focused on providing exemplary direct services to people with autism, but few are focused on the people who interact regularly with people with autism and whose lack of understanding can cause severe trauma for people with autism and stress for their families.
WHAT’S UNIQUE ABOUT OUR APPROACH?
Our approach focuses on the individual, the role of their circle of support and how responses to everyday mannerisms of people with an autism diagnosis impact behavior. We provide resources and offer sessions for teachers and paraprofessionals who work within the schools, community organizations, first responders, and people that have regular interaction with people diagnosed with autism, including parents and peer groups, even if that interaction is incidental.
“Autism is a different ability some people have
That affects how people think.
It’s kind of cool because
You are around people who think differently.”
Greyson Delisle, 12 years old
“The problem is not us; the problem is the perception of us by others.”
Mathew Hardie, a man on the spectrum
“To know one person with autism is to know one person with autism"!”
