KATC works in collaboration with the Kentucky Department of Education (KDE) and eleven Special Educational Cooperatives at all levels of operation. Cooperatives have the capacity to create and sustain change at the local level. Such collaboration is essential to develop and sustain a network of professional development, training and coaching to educators. Building upon this relationship, KATC initiated a collaborative workgroup in 2008 to develop a proposal and was subsequently awarded a partnership with the National Professional Development Center on Autism Spectrum Disorders.

Center for Systems Change - Parent Perspectives Survey
 Parents of children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are faced with an overwhelming number of choices related to their children's care. Many parents report using a variety of treatments to find that perfect combination that will help their child. To learn more about the types of interventions families are using, the Center for Systems Change, at OCALI, created the Parent Perspectives Survey. This survey asks parents about what interventions their children are currently using or have used in the past. For popular types of interventions (e.g., behavioral interventions, biomedical interventions, and therapies) the survey asks about the ease of using the interventions, how well they worked, and the level of family-centered care provided. Finally, the survey asks parents about their child's overall progress and general experiences of being a parent of a child with ASD. All parents of children with ASD at any age are welcome to fill out the survey. Please complete the survey by 9/15/13 Click here to participate |
