The Chartwell Center is a non-profit organization that serves children with autism and related disorders.

Founded in 1999 by parents and professionals concerned about the urgent lack of autism-specific education in the greater New Orleans community, Chartwell provides direct educational services to children ages 5 to 21, and offers training and technical support to parents, teachers and other professionals. For the school year 2013 - 2014, Chartwell will accept children ages 5 to 21 in two classrooms: elementary and middle/high school.

Currently the school serves three classrooms: pre-K, elementary, and our middle/high school PATH (Performing and Achieving Transitional Heights) program, which serves students age 12 - 21. Instructional methods reflect nationally recommended practices for children with autism and related disorders. Learn more about our programs >>

You can help children with autism develop communication and work skills which will give them the gift of independence, self-confidence, and joyful participation in everyday life.
