Advancing Life Learners (A.L.L.) is a place where autistic voices are heard and abilities are celebrated.
A.L.L. is an autistic learning center that understands greater needs for non-speaking autistics that include grade level academics designed to meet the needs of individuals who have been neglected in traditional school settings. We welcome non-speaking autistics, who have been surviving vs. thriving due to:
- behaviors (we call this body deregulation)
- significant sensory needs
- being misunderstood
- lacking professional support for dynamic learning
- supposed academic deficits
- not meeting academic potentials
- inadequate communication skill building (Soma®RPM, letter board spelling, typing, AAC)
- social appropriateness mentoring NOT compliance
A.L.L. provides opportunities for daily life learning in a setting unlike any other. Every individual is given daily opportunities to learn through hands on activities that motivate learning. Our teachers hold college degrees or are ESA credentialed with increased knowledge of how to encourage and support dynamic learners. We prioritize a limited client base to ensure the delivery of high-quality opportunities while safeguarding the well-being of both our clients and staff from undue stress. Above all else, we presume competence in every client ensuring that all who spend time with us will THRIVE!
The future permanent home of A.L.L. is a sprawling ranch-like campus located on 1.6 acres in Gilbert, Arizona. The campus is currently being remodeled to bring it in line with Town of Gilbert commercial building standards.
