The Summit Center

At The Summit Center, we know autism.  

The Summit Center offers a range of programs to support children, adults, and families navigating the complex challenges of autism spectrum disorder.  

Your Give 716 donation is critical to sustaining our growing programs and providing the tools individuals need to reach their greatest potential. Earlier this year, our special education school, Summit Academy, began serving 100 additional students. Summit Academy now serves 450 children and young adults across five locations.  

Summit Academy provides a 12-month school experience, with special education teachers, speech therapists, adaptive physical education instructors, and other professionals. We deliver tailored supports to each and every student, fostering lifelong learning and greater independence. 

You can help individuals with autism thrive in the classroom and out in the real world by donating on Give 716 Day.  

Guided by evidence-based practice, we maximize life success for people facing developmental, social, and behavioral challenges. Our methodology is based on applied behavior analysis therapy, which has been identified by hundreds of scientific studies as the most effective method to teach individuals with autism. 

We are dedicated to helping every individual achieve the highest level of personal independence.
