Crossroads School is dedicated to helping children with autism acquire the academic, social, vocational, and skills of daily living necessary to achieve their highest level of independence possible as adults, as well as to make available support and education to their families. Crossroads School is an option for students with severely challenging behaviors that may preclude them from inclusion in public school environments.

Support from this event will greatly assist our ability to:

• Expand our capacity to provide vocational and job training to our students

• Allow us to better serve children through training for special education teachers.

• Continue to disseminate research and training at both the local and national levels – reaching hundreds of educators and other professionals who daily serve children with autism,

• In addition to capital improvements to our school building, Crossroads School seeks to further expand its programming to serve children with especially severe needs.

Contact Crossroads at 508-651-7500 or info@crossroadsschoolma.org for more information. 

Sincerely, 

Crossroads School
