### About ASERT

The Autism Services, Education, Resources, and Training Collaborative (ASERT) is a statewide initiative funded by the Office of Developmental Programs (ODP). The goal of the ASERT Collaborative is to provide streamlined access to information for autistic Pennsylvanians.

Throughout this website we use the term ‘autism’ to refer to all autism spectrum disorders. In some sections of the site, language has been adopted directly from self-advocacy groups in order to use language preferred by self-advocates.
