The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention states that 1 in 36 children in the United States have autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This prevalence highlights the need for tailored educational strategies to support these students effectively.

Led by an interdisciplinary panel comprised of a pediatrician, ABA specialist, occupational therapist, speech and language therapist, and parent advocate, this series aims to equip educators and school staff with the knowledge and skills necessary to effectively support students with autism in a school-based setting.
