6 Our mission is to provide access services for autistic students that lead to successful academic outcomeswhile providing educational opportunities that increase self-knowledge in the areas of executive functioning, self-regulation, social interaction, self-advocacy, and to actively promote a campuswide environment of inclusionand understandingof students, faculty and staff with neurological differences.
7 Medical Model Seeks to fix Sees disabled person as the problem Believes there is one correct or typical way of being Embraces cultural constraints Social Justice Model Seeks to empower Sees barriers to access as the problem Believes there are many acceptable ways of being Questions cultural constraints
8 The concept of diversity encompasses acceptanceand respect. It means understanding that each individual is, uniqueand recognizing our individual differences. It is the exploration of these differences in a safe, positive, and nurturing environment. It is about understanding each other and moving beyond simple tolerance to embracingand celebratingthe rich dimensions of diversitycontained within each individual.

13 I feel like I can finally gain back what I lost. I can finally feel that desire again, that passion of a goal that was not set by a teacher, nor by a therapist or my parents, but by me and me alone.
