Dear Providers:
The Division has partnered with Behavioral Pediatrics Resource Center to provide Autism Awareness training for foster parents (both public and private), DFCS case management staff, and RBWO provider case management staff.
Behavioral Pediatrics Resource Center is a nonprofit organization that was created to serve children with autism spectrum disorders. Their goal is to provide awareness trainings for individuals caring for children with autism.
From January through June 2023, Behavioral Pediatrics will be offering training sessions throughout the state. Rollout will be by region and a schedule will be provided to outline the available training opportunities for your region.
