AUTISM INFORMATION FOR PARENTS

(Greater Philadelphia area)



Are you looking for support and information regarding Autism in the Philadelphia area? Look no further. This information packet is available to anyone interested in learning more about children who have autism and to assist with finding special education resources and organizations in the area.

My name is Brenda Bates and I am a special education teacher in Bucks County Pa. I teach in an alternative school specializing in Autism. I have compiled a list of resources to help guide and support you and your child.

Pennsylvania Dept. of Education- www.education.state.pa.us 

This site should be your first stop. It offers a multitude of information including the state standards that must be taught in the classroom to all students. 

Next, under this same site, if you click on the special education tab, there is a wealth of information regarding parent education and advocacy. The site I found most interesting was The Peal Center (www.pealcenter.org)))



The PEAL Center is an organization of parents of children with special health care needs and disabilities reaching out to assist:

-Families of children with disabilities or special health care needs

-Professionals and others who assist children with disabilities or special health care needs

-Children, youth and young adults with disabilities or special health care needs ages 0-26.

They are offering a workshop called The 9th Annual Inclusive Communities Conference-March 25, 2015 to all those interested.

There are various other web sites and help lines in the Philadelphia area to assist you. Here are a few:
