ATC is launching an Autism Initiative Capital Campaign that will focus on expanding
our facilities and programs to meet the ever-growing need for autism services in San
Antonio. Early detection and interventions of autism is very beneficial to the child and
their family. Therefore, ATC has decided the Autism Treatment Center Rehabilitation
Agency (ATCRA) will be Phase I, breaking ground in fall of 2009. ATCRA will provide
a venue for comprehensive diagnosis, assessment and therapies for children with
autism. The Kingdom for Kids playground is a part of Phase I of our Autism Initiative.
Kingdom for Kids is a San Antonio Rotary Club sponsored program that partners City
Year San Antonio with a ready and experienced volunteer force to build play
structures and lead landscaping efforts. Since this program was founded in 1996,
Kingdom for Kids has completed seven state of the art playground builds at inner
schools and public libraries across the community. Rotarian volunteers will join City
Year Corps members and other corporate teams to complete the project in just one week. |
