Severe Autism-related Inpatient Treatment Resources, State-by-State
We are crowdsourcing a new list of Inpatient Treatment Resources for children and/or adults with severe autism, in the 50 states.
Please note our list is not comprehensive nor is it vetted by NCSA. Inclusion does not imply endorsement, and omission does not imply any sort of disapproval. Note that many clinics have waitlists.
We would love to hear your suggestions about resources in your area. Please email us at info@ncsautism.org. Thank you!
