The majority of children with autism are being served within school districts.  PEP Assist professionals provide support to teachers and students so that more and more children with autism can thrive in regular school environments.  As a result, children with autism, many who have significant communications challenges and limited social skills, are able to learn in places where they are surrounded by typically developing peers.  This exposure to peers with strong language and social skills greatly enhances the education and development of this special population.
