Description:
An educational and rehabilitative program for severely developmentally disabled children, age 3-22, who require and can benefit from a one-to-one teaching ratio. Children may have severe disorders of perception, language, learning and behavior. A typical child might have brain injury, severe aphasia, autism, hyperactivity, behavior disorder, cerebral palsy, birth defects, hearing or visual impairment. Children will exhibit significant developmental delays, particularly in the area of language. Older children also may participate in prevocational and community living skills programs. Referrals are best handled through the local school district special education program. The Morgan Autism Center Adult Program provides a structured and positive training experience for autistic adults in a setting emphasizing remediation of deficits in language, learning and behavior, and the learning of independent living and vocational skills. Referrals are usually paid for through the Regional Center. Formerly known as Morgan Center for Autism Spectrum Disorder.Location
