Learn about our Autism Program!
The Autism Program at the Wylie Center is committed to providing the highest quality individualized intervention services to make positive and pervasive differences in the lives of children, youth and families in areas relating to Autistic Disorders and to enhance overall quality of living.
We provide intensive one to one behavior modification and early intervention for children 18 months to 12 years of age by using an integrated and comprehensive intervention model based on the principles of behavior analysis and the concept of individualization. We believe intervention must target every area of impaired functioning, including communication, social, play, motor, cognitive, academic, attention, executive functioning, and adaptive skill.
