Welcome!

Improving the quality of teaching for students with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) enhances educational outcomes for everyone.  The AUTISM Educators Act (H.R. 1509) will make federal grants available to qualifying school districts across the United States.  These grants will fund pilot programs designed to train teachers in general education classrooms that include students with Autism Spectrum Disorders.

Join us.  Call or write your Member of Congress and ask him/her to co-sponsor and help pass the Autism Understanding and Training in School Methodologies for Educators Act of 2013 (AUTISM Educators Act) (H.R. 1509).  This training will improve educational outcomes for many students and help meet a critical need in our public schools.  

Together let's make it happen.
