UA-ACTS was created in 2006 to facilitate a campus environment that promotes an enjoyable and successful college experience for autistic students in preparation for their future endeavors.
The UA-ACTS Program provides individualized services to help students develop appropriate skills for academic organization, social interactions, daily living, and self-advocacy that will contribute to their success as an independent adult.
UA-ACTS seeks to provide student-centered support for the transition into a large, traditional university and to guide students towards achieving their goals for the future. Also, the program seeks to promote the awareness and acceptance of autism throughout the campus community through education, training, and collaborations with university programs, faculty, staff, and students.
