ASK is a no-cost voluntary program for Kirkwood Community College students with autism spectrum disorder. ASK works with students to create an individualized plan that builds academic and social skills necessary for college success.
Our program includes weekly meetings with autism advocates and structured social events. We integrate Kirkwood resources, community partnerships, and research-based interventions and curriculums.
* A student who requires or desires para education support is responsible for arranging and paying for this type of service.
Autism Advocates are available Monday through Friday, typically from 9 a.m. – 4 p.m.
