    Making Possibilities Out Of Disabilities

Coastal Bend Autism Advocacy, Inc. was formed, in part, to provide an avenue for parents 
and educators of autistic children to find information about services and aid that is available 
to the children and young adults living in the Coastal Bend who are on the Autistic Spectrum.  
Since  forming, the CBAA has received many requests for assistance from families with autistic 
children.  CBAA's goals are to support the needs of children, families and educators by raising 
awareness of autism and fundraising to bring additional services and materials needed to help
aid the autistic child in reaching his/her potential.

CBAA's mission is to help children, families and educators with autistic children.

We Focus On:

1. Education
2. Health Care
3. Socialization
4. Community Awareness
5. Employment
6. Other disabled in our community

 


Visit the "Learn the Signs. Act Early." website for information about childhood developmental milestones and delays. You'll be able to track the developmental milestones your child should be reaching, see how milestones change as your child grows, and download fact sheets on developmental milestones for children from 3 months to 5 years, along with information on developmental screening and developmental disabilities.
