Project and Programs Across Areas of Focus

Autism Spectrum Disorders

The Indiana Resource Center for Autism conducts outreach training and consultations, engages in research, and develops and disseminates information on behalf of individuals across the autism spectrum, including autism, Asperger’s syndrome, and other pervasive developmental disorders. Efforts are focused on providing communities, organizations, agencies, and families with the knowledge and skills to support children and adults in typical early intervention, school, community, work, and home settings.

The Autism Advocates of Indiana Project trains law enforcement personnel, firefighters, and EMTs to recognize the characteristics of autism spectrum disorders in critical situations and react accordingly. Additionally, kits will be provided to school-based autism and parent group leaders to train responders in their local communities.

The Autism Training Project provides persons with autism spectrum disorders and their families with training and materials dissemination designed to increase their knowledge on autism spectrum disorders.
