Improving the lives of people with autism — one individual at a time, one family at a time, one community at a time.

Abby Tappert believes you’re never too old to impr Abby Tappert believes you’re never too old to improve your communication skills. As Lead Speech Therapist, she sees autistic children and adults use a variety of methods to communicate. 

There are several methods of communication Abby uses to help her students — an iPad, a Picture Exchange Communication System [PECS], and visual support. Everything Abby does is individualized to help students spontaneously communicate their wants and needs. And the feeling of seeing someone spontaneously communicate never gets old. 

“I’ll walk into a classroom as the students are working on their other programs, and I’ll hear them use a phrase we talked about in speech. If I taught them to request something and then I hear them use that in the classroom spontaneously, that’s the most rewarding thing,” said Abby. “That’s the whole point of our programs.”
We wish you and your family a Happy New Year! We wish you and your family a Happy New Year!
Before Collin came to Eden, people told his mom, K Before Collin came to Eden, people told his mom, Kimberly, that he would never be able to communicate with her. “They told me that I should just give up,” she said. 

Today, Collin can tell his parents what he needs or wants and can follow directions. “They gave him a voice,” said Kimberly. “His community was non-existent before, and now his skills have skyrocketed and developed in ways that teachers in other schools told me were impossible.”

Behavior Analyst Matt Frey did not set out to have Behavior Analyst Matt Frey did not set out to have a career working with autistic adults. He joined Eden in 2013 as a Direct Support Professional, with no prior experience working with Eden’s population.

As he got to know the Adult Services participants, he knew he had found his calling. “When I first came in, it was a job, but over time it became less of a job and more of a purpose,” he said.
