April is National Autism Awareness Month

National Autism Awareness Month represents an opportunity to promote autism awareness and acceptance and to draw attention to the tens of thousands facing an autism diagnosis each year. 
     The GHAEA Autism Resource Team provides consultative services to school age students and those children, birth to two years old, who are identified with Autism Spectrum Disorder as well as children who demonstrate autism-like characteristics.

Extended team members include Katelyn Buck, Cheryl Case, Jill Clayton, Brooke Dornack, Sarah Girres, Kristi Minnick, Carissa Otto, Laurie Peterson, Molly Ternus, Beth Torneten and Melanie Van Dyke.  The team is supervised by Julie Stessman.
