IMPORTANT NEWS ABOUT CAMP ACHIEVE 2020:
Subject: 2020 Autism Summer Camp cancelled
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and unknown timeline of Indiana’s “Stay at Home” mandate, the 2020 Autism Summer Camp at Ball State University has been cancelled. We have rescheduled the camp originally planned for June 15 to July 22 this year for Summer 2021.
Staff work on camp throughout the year, including extensive training and preparation, and are saddened to inform the families and their children in Central Indiana of this decision. However, we must act in a socially responsible manner. We are announcing our decision now so you could have as much time as possible to adjust your plans. The tradition of providing a fun and academically challenging camp experience for children with autism will continue in Summer 2021.

The Center for Autism
Spectrum Disorder (CASD) was founded to produce meaningful answers to the
questions that most challenge the Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) community. By
using rigorous research methods and addressing crucial gaps in services, our
team seeks to serve those affected by ASD. We also seek to build the capacity of
communities to meet the growing needs of individuals with ASD, their families,
and the professionals who work with them. Toward that end, we train graduate
and undergraduate students to provide services in the context of applied
research. We strive to generate innovative, time-efficient, and cost-effective
treatments that work, so that people with ASD can reach their full potential.
