The Imperial County Program
for Children with Autism

The Imperial County Program for Children with Autism is an after school program and parent support group that will provide services to children with autism and their families. These services include direct work with children to increase socialization, communication, and appropriate behaviors, training activities for parents and siblings, and a support group for parents. This program was initiated in 1999 by Stan Swartz, Professor of Special Education at California State University, San Bernardino and funded by the San Diego and Imperial Counties Regional Center.
