About This Cause
QSAC is a New York City and Long Island based nonprofit that supports children and adults with autism, together with their families, in achieving greater independence, realizing their future potential, and contributing to their communities in a meaningful way by offering person-centered services. QSAC pursues this mission through direct services that provide a supportive and individualized setting for children and adults with autism to improve their communication, socialization, academic, and functional skills. QSAC offers programs and services for both children and adults with autism. Programs for children include early intervention, preschool, school, after school, and in-home educational and support services. QSAC’s adult programs include supportive living, skill development programs, and in-home services. All of QSAC’s programs provide supportive and trained staff, high-impact services, and a commitment to quality. In support of its direct service programs, QSAC works to be an innovator in the field of developmental disability providers by implementing new technologies to best support the children and adults in our programs. In addition, QSAC’s clinical and educational leadership teams regularly embark on research projects that seek to further unlock new and innovative strategies and methodologies for best supporting the learning outcomes of the individuals we serve. To extend its impact, QSAC offers parent and sibling support groups, trainings, an annual conference for parents, and other programs that expand the community’s awareness regarding autism and access to services. SERVICES FOR ADULTS WITH AUTISM QSAC offers a variety of person-centered services for adults with autism. From day habilitation and vocational/employment programs to residential care and emergency respite for caregivers, QSAC's programs foster independence, provide excellence in care, and give support and guidance to individuals and their families. SERVICES FOR CHILDREN WITH AUTISM QSAC's services for children with autism include early childhood services for children between the ages of 0 and 5, a day school for children between the ages of 5 and 21, after-school programs throughout New York City, a respite program, evaluations, and more. SUPPORT GROUPS AND TRAININGS At QSAC, our goal is to help all caregivers improve the independence and quality of life of their loved ones. In addition to a sibling support group and parent training group, we also offer various workshops and trainings for those who care for or live with individuals with autism.
