Offering Hope for Autistic Children and their Families


Hannah's Hope
is dedicated to the education of children with autistic spectrum disorder (ASD). Our vision is to provide a highly individualized program that will address the needs of each child. Our approach utilizes Applied Behavior Analysis, a scientific discipline that has proven to be an effective intervention for individuals with Autism and Developmental Disabilitities.

About Us

We are a group of parents with autistic children working with members of the community to provide effective treatment options and support for autistic children and their families. Currently, this program is at the development stage. We are in the process of interviewing prospective teachers and staff. As parents, we are attending workshops to better educate ourselves and are raising funds to purchase materials and supplies.

What We Offer

  • Full day/year round program
  • 1:1 direct teaching
  • Natural environment teaching
  • Data-based instruction and progress tracking
  • Support for parents and siblings

Location

The use of a house in downtown Corpus Christi has been donated for the learning center. It is located at 903 Chaparral. Renovations are in progress. The house will allow us to have space for a motor room, a sensory room, music therapy and parent training.
