Garden Academy

Welcome to Garden Academy. We are a non-profit organization established in 2004 dedicated to educating individuals with autism, increasing community awareness of the disorder, and supporting research towards greater advancements in the field of autism education.

Our Mission

Garden Academy uses scientific, data-based and accountable interventions to provide an individualized education to students with autism so that they may lead lives of the greatest possible independence.

We are committed to helping students develop skills necessary to realize their full educational potential and to become integral and functional members of the family and the community. Garden Academy provides: (a) a highly structured, intensive, outcome-oriented educational program for students on the autistic spectrum; (b) professional training for all staff on an on-going basis; (c) parent training; and (d) transitional services for students moving into less restrictive environments, when appropriate. Garden Academy also promotes increased community awareness and understanding of autism, pervasive developmental disorders and appropriate interventions.
