“PACES has given Chantel

a new beginning. From the time that

she has attended ASD’s PACES

Program, her growth and development

has been absolutely amazing. Through the

love and care of ASD Staff, Chantel has

experienced the joys of communicating and

expressing herself to those around her. Her deficits in life have been converted to positive energy. Thank you.” ~ -Rita, ASD Parent
