Brooklyn Autism Center

The Brooklyn Autism Center (BAC) is a non-profit school dedicated to providing high-quality education to students with autism. We believe all children are unique and individualized instruction is essential to their growth. Our overall mission is to develop the most individualized and meaningful programming to support the lives of our students and their families. In 2006, our founders began the monumental process of establishing a school that would provide the education they believed their own son deserved. With their passion, compassion, and unrelenting energy, they built BAC into what it is today. In 2007, when we opened our doors, 1 in 110 children were being diagnosed with autism; today that number is 1 in 59 (1 in 42 boys). Since 2007, we have trained hundreds of teachers and volunteers who work within the autism community. We have made a difference in the lives of hundreds of families with our unique educational opportunities.
