The goal of the Task Force is to establish guidelines for the education of people with autism in thestate of Colorado. The first meeting of the Task Force was held in October of 1998, at which time the following goals were established. The goals were to: Establish greater public awareness of autism in general. Establish the foundation for a network of statewide resources regarding autism. Provide information about services to parents and service providers. Identify guidelines for measurable educational and instructional goals thatcan be used by members of the education community for serving children with autism. Establish a set of guiding principles for serving children with autism. Establish a set of guiding principles for the training of educational service providers andparents. This manual was developed to provide a range of resources and choices for educators,parents and/or advocates of students who have autism. The information in this manualwas compiled with input from many individuals who parent, teach and work with children with autism; their assistance and insights were invaluable. It should be noted that the Colorado Department of Education does not endorseany one strategy or methodology that is included in this manual.
