Dear Seniors, I don't know if any of you wold be interested but I thought
I would send this along.
TEACCH is one of the most commonly adopted models of intervention for kids
with *autism *and this is
an opportunity for training this summer. I don't see the cost so you'll
have to investigate further if interested.
Some school districts pay and send their teachers for training.

deliberately designed work materials. Attendance is required for all 5
days. Program runs from 8:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. each day.
