The Center for Autism
Spectrum Disorder (CASD) was founded to produce meaningful answers to the
questions that most challenge the Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) community. By
using rigorous research methods and addressing crucial gaps in services, our
team seeks to serve those affected by ASD. We also seek to build the capacity of
communities to meet the growing needs of individuals with ASD, their families,
and the professionals who work with them. Toward that end, we train graduate
and undergraduate students to provide services in the context of applied
research. We strive to generate innovative, time-efficient, cost-effective
treatments that work, so that people with ASD can reach their full potential.
