Autism Schools & Special Education in Allentown

The Lehigh Valley has two autism programs that most metros this size would envy: a county Enhanced Autism Program capping classrooms at six students, and Lehigh University's Centennial School, a national leader in positive behavior supports. Pennsylvania also funds special-education scholarships up to $15,000 through business tax credits. The pieces here are unusually good - the work is knowing which door to knock on.
