Families for Effective Autism Treatment
(FEAT) of Washington
FEAT has grown from its initial six families in 1996 to over 800 today. Most FEAT families develop and implement intensive in-home ABA programs for their children with autism with little outside support and FEAT of Washington helps these families by providing them with necessary informational and training resources.
In 1999, FEAT of Washington began offering clinical service programs to its member families.
In addition to supporting families through mentoring and providing resources, FEAT currently, serves more than 300 students each year in its clinical programs and provides more than 22,000 hours of high quality intervention through its clinical services programs..
