The third office, slated to open on December 1, 2007 will be located at 666 Washington Rd., Pittsburgh, PA 15228 in uptown Mt. Lebanon where families can attend support group meetings, receive therapies, visit the parent education centers and get direction and assistance in navigating various therapies and interventions.
"We were the first in the State to open such a facility last year and we're very proud of that fact," said Cindy Waeltermann, Center Director. "There was never a place to go under one roof for all of these services. Not only did we provide one Center, but we have been so successful, we are opening our third satellite location," she said.
The Autism Center of Pittsburgh and Aspire Pediatric Therapy service over 700 children a week at their three locations in the North Hills, Moon Township, and Mt. Lebanon locations.
