"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."

"We appreciate everything the staff do to make our son safe & comfortable. It has been a difficult transition for us, but knowing that he is in capable hands means the world to us!"

"We want to say thank you to the wonderful staff… they go above and beyond to make the home a wonderful place to live and thrive for our son"

"Since Ken joined Food School at ACA, I noticed he is less resistant to interacting with new foods. Our family mealtimes are more interactive & funny. The program was very helpful!"

"I'm a rockstar!"

"I'm close with my brother Riley. Having him live away from home is difficult but ACA has made it easier for my family, because we know how much Riley & other students are cared for..."

"Anderson was not around the corner, it is 150 miles away from us. But, once we came here, we knew it was home for him"

"Letting your child go is painful, but once your child is here you will quickly see, that you will become part of Anderson too"

"In the past 10 years between my staff and friends, I've really felt more comfortable and safe than I ever have"

"He's loved, and he's cared for, and that's very very beautiful to see"

"Because of Anderson I was able to go back to work about 5 years ago. Jack had such an awesome experience and he grew so much. Anderson will always remain in our hearts."
