The ASD Support Center offers professionals, parents and individuals with ASD the information and resources necessary to increase their capacity to access, obtain and/or provide comprehensive and coordinated services that result in improved educational performance and enhanced life-long outcomes.

The ASD Support Center is located at Rhode Island College at the Alumni House. The library holds updated resource material on Autism Spectrum Disorders and includes the latest books and videotapes. These books and videos are available for lending.

Teresa Egan, special education high school teacher in Scituate, developed this Power Point presentation to teach an understanding of Asperger Syndrome to the students at the high school. This was extremely useful to give an awareness of the disability, but also to give students information about what they can do to support students with Asperger Syndrome.
