The Highlands Center for Autism is a private, year-round day school serving children from the earliest diagnosis through school age. The educational foundation of our program is based on ABA, which is an approach that is grounded in decades of research. We offer the only center-based program in Kentucky using ABA in a clinical educational setting. We are a mirror program of the Cleveland Clinic Center for Autism.

“The Center for Autism was created as part of the vision of Highlands Health System to meet a community need in healthcare and education. Highlands Center for Autism is unique and is the first program like it in Kentucky. In addition to providing a needed service, it can contribute to the local economy with the potential for recruiting new medical professionals and families relocating to the area. We hope to see the Center grow and create additional components that will one day position it to become a regional and national resource for the diagnosis and treatment of children with autism.”

- Harold C. Warman, Jr., President and CEO

 “I know the program at Highlands will not only be a success, but it will be a ‘jewel’ in the state of Kentucky for the treatment of children with autism.”

- Leslie Sinclair, Cleveland Clinic Center for Autism
