ECHO Autism Best Practices is a FREE virtual learning network of autism specialists that allows for real-time access to experts in autism and other developmental disorders. This ECHO aims to support school personnel in New York State, and beyond, in the education and support of school-age children with autism through case-based learning. The ECHO provides ongoing support for educators and other professionals working with autistic students by providing professional development and program suggestions.

How Does ECHO® work?

Each 90-minute monthly ECHO Program session includes a de-identified case presentation by a community-based educational provider and a didactic presentation by the ECHO Autism team. Time is allowed for questions and answers.

ECHO program session occurs the third Thursday of each month.

    "We instantly knew that AELA was the facility for us. Our son was provided with specialized care, in a traditional style classroom. One year ago our son was non-verbal, today, he is putting sentences together, and able to make his needs known."
