School-Age

Just as there are various treatment approaches, there are multiple educational programs that provide stimulating learning environments for school-aged children with autism. The Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act (IDEIA) is a federal mandate that guarantees students with disabilities a free, appropriate public education. Additionally, the education plan for a student with disabilities can include "related services" that may encompass many of the treatments discussed in the treatments section.
