Linwood’s Commitment

We are committed to providing programs and services that gently guide individuals with autism toward productive and fulfilling lives.

We will identify the gifts unique to each individual and lay a foundation of support that builds on their strengths and identifies their opportunities regardless of the challenges they may face.

We will gently guide each individual down his or her chosen path. We will provide a support system with the underlying notion that each individual will be treated with dignity and respect and that each will live, work and play in an environment filled with encouragement and rich with opportunity.
