Helping Children & Families Put the Pieces Together.

Our Mission...

• Provide quality and empirically validated services to children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) in a clinical setting.
• Support families of children with ASD by increasing knowledge of the disorder and its evidence-based treatment.
  
• Increase awareness of ASD at the community level, to include medical practitioners, school systems and civic organizations.

Attention Parents!

ACT Today! (Autism Care and Treatment Today!) is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing funding to families that cannot afford or access the treatments their children with autism need.   It was founded in 2005 by Dr. Doreen Granpeesheh, a renowned expert in the field of autism and ABA.  Through direct donation, corporate sponsorship, and community generosity, ACT Today! is changing the lives of children TODAY.

Recognizing the extraordinary challenges military families impacted by autism experience (waging a battle on 2 fronts – one for their country, and another for their children), ACT Today! has launched ACT Today! for Military Families a fundraising campaign benefiting military children with autism to help defray out of pocket medical costs and other quality of life and support programs. 

ACT Today for Military Families is accepting grant applications through the end of August.  See below link:

Our Purpose...

By law, children with disabilities have an equal opportunity to a free and public education. Currently, the public school system has a special-education curriculum that is general in its application. This is not the best method to ensure children with autism reach their fullest potential.

Children with autism cannot be taught en masse like typically developing children. Each child must begin with an intensive one-on-one plan specifically created to meet that child's needs. Fulfillment of this critical need is the purpose for which MASC was created.
