This program serves as a resource to Local Education Agencies (LEAs), including charter schools. The goal is to help ensure that students with ASD develop intellectually, physically, emotionally, and vocationally. NCDPI Consultants for Autism accomplish this by providing universal, tailored, and customized support through professional learning and technical assistance to LEAs throughout the state. This fosters capacity building and sustainment of best practices for LEAs to provide appropriate individualized education programs in the least restrictive environment.
