Hawkeye Ranch Center For Autism Email & Phone Number

A LETTER FROM OUR CO-FOUNDERI would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself and our non-profit organization dedicated to helping families with autism and disabilities. We are an organization founded on the knowledge gained from the struggle to find integration services for our co-founder's grandson with autism. Our mission to provide a future for one child with Autism expanded to one that would change the lives of hundreds. Hawkeye Ranch's program is being developed to provide real life training skills to children and adults. We are expanding to include day care assistance, respite, assisted living centers, scholarship funds, summer camp options and a wide variety of therapies by collaborating with other organizations with similar goals. We are now in the process of opening Hawkeye Ranch, a non-profit 501(c)(3) center for adults with an IQ over 70. This is the beginning of the vision. Currently, state and federal funding providing assistance to the families of children with autism ends when that child leaves the school system. The young adult's dreams and progression is left to family members who may not be qualified or financialy stable enough to continue the valuable therapies and skill instruction for transition into a thriving adulthood.The vision of the center is to provide a community that can house transitional services, day-camps, knowledge centers, family respite, assisted living and updated therapies. The center will be staffed with highly qualified and trained professionals, who will provide exceptional life skill therapies and valuable services, including but not limited to life and Social Skill Instructions, Behavioral Therapy and a wide variety of Job Skills Training Therapies. Respectfully, Gregg Whelen Co-founder, President, and Director of Hawkeye Ranch4164 Austin Bluffs pkwy #110 Colorado Springs80918Specialties: OUR VISION: TO CREATE A NATIONWIDE INITIATIVE TO BUILD COMMUNITY CENTERS THAT HELP YOUNG ADULTS WITH AUTISM PROGRESS INTO A THRIVING ADULTHOOD.
