Adult Residential Program

Anderson Center for Autism’s Adult Residential Program offers a complete array of the highest quality services designed to enrich the lives of adults with autism. This unique program supports and promotes the successes of our adults in homes, known as Individual Residential Alternatives, located in communities close to the Center’s main campus. Based on the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and positive behavioral supports, the program is aimed at development in the areas of communications, daily living skills, leisure time activities and more.

To promote a well rounded lifestyle and integration into the community, Anderson Center provides our adults with a diverse selection of recreational and community involvement opportunities including shopping, hobbies, arts, Special Olympics and volunteer work placements at the SPCA, Salvation Army, Goodwill, pizzerias and others. We also encourage family involvement and offer opportunities for individuals to develop and maintain relationships with their families, friends and community members. Additionally, the program provides all necessary safeguards to assure that each individual’s decisions and preferences are respected and their dreams are realized.
