Center for Spectrum Services
Long before autism became a commonly understood disability, the Center for Spectrum Services focused on the treatment of this puzzling disorder. With a history of excellence serving people all across the autism spectrum, the dedicated and talented staff of the Center for Spectrum Services believe that each person we work with has the ability to grow, learn and achieve, and with each day another life is brightened. |

A second special screening of The Asperger’s Difference: for and about young people with Asperger Syndrome will be held Saturday, February 6, 2010 at Upstate Films, Montgomery Street in Rhinebeck, NY from 11:00 to 12:00. The first screening held at Upstate in November 2009 had to turn over 100 people way after the theater filled.
This 30 minute documentary is designed to help families and professionals support young people with Asperger’s in building self-awareness, self-esteem and self advocacy skills and has been highly endorsed by autism experts Tony Attwood and Dr. Temple Grandin.
This free screening will be followed by a panel discussion. DVDS of the documentary and the accompanying discussion guide will be available for purchase.
