These dedicated professionals are providing support and services in QSAC's residences for people with autism, running critical errands for families, and delivering food to families in need. In addition to direct support professionals providing in-person services, QSAC's educators are teaching remotely, support group facilitators are leading virtual sessions, staff members are hosting an array of educational and enrichment programs and workshops, and the organization has developed virtual opportunities for individuals to socialize and maintain a sense of community.
