Why read Motivations? POAC recognizes that autism families already have too much to read and too many things to do. So a POAC member who has already read a new book, reviewed the recent research, attended a conference or been through an experience has summarized the key points for you in a 1-2 page format. Our goal is to save your valuable time.
Invited speakers share valuable information about creating, running and funding ABA programs.
