April Is Autism Awareness Month

April is National Autism Awareness Month! ABC Services is offering all sorts of services and classes to help the Autism community of Middle Tennessee. We have a free STEP training on parents rights within the education system being offered Thursday evening from 530-830. It will also be offered in Spanish!

We also are offering our 3rd annual CPR and First Aide classes through the American Red Cross. It is for our staff first and then open spots are available for parents after that. It's first come first serve for the free spots, after that we may have some paid spots available. Please call for cost.

Our LIFE group will be going on their 3rd field trip this year to the Dragon Park and then Centennial Park to feed the ducks, work on social play skills and have lunch this Friday.

We will be OPEN on Good Friday, if you would like additional services please contact Sandra immediately, our schedule is filling up. For staff to celebrate the Easter holiday we will be closed the following Monday, April 25.

ABC Services is looking for several things...

First we are looking to move to a new location. We are looking for approximately 2200 square feet off of I-65 near our current location. We are available to move between now and August. If you know of any rental space available meeting those needs please contact Jane at 615-331-1141.

Also, we are in need of your thoughts. We are looking to expand and offer additional services including, family and marital counseling, and case management. If this is something you'd be interested in please contact us. We will be sending out a survey soon.

One last reminder about The Ewing School, we are making progress but it is slow. If you have time, or resources to offer please let us know! For it to be a success it will take a community. We're looking for volunteers and resources, as well as location at this point. Please contact Jane or Tamar if you are able to participate at jane@abcservicesllc.net or tamar@abcservicesllc.net.

Happy Spring! Enjoy that weather!
