The Center for Autism Research, Treatment, and Training (CARTT) is part of the Auburn University Psychological Services Center and serves as a training clinic for students in the Behavior Analysis Program in the Department of Psychology.
Services
CARTT is an intensive preschool program that uses behavioral, research-based instruction to address the individual needs of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and others in the Auburn-Opelika community. We provide a variety of services including (but not limited to) academic and vocational skill acquisition, school readiness, toilet training, social skills, and self-advocacy.
We also offer a range of group-based classes and behavioral consultation services to individuals and schools in the surrounding area.
Cost
The cost of services is based on a sliding scale model. Whenever possible, clinic-based services are provided free of charge to families thanks to generous donations from the Auburn-Opelika community.
