The Tailor Vision
The Tailor Institute empowers high-functioning individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in discovering special skills while learning tools needed to work and live more independently.
Clinicians design tailored treatments plans which target our participants’ identified strengths. The goal for each client is to lead a more productive, independent life. The Tailor Institute envisions a world where individuals with ASD will have every opportunity to thrive!
Project Life Experience
