Description
CAPTAIN is an exemplary model of intentionally affecting broad systems' level change by identifying/engaging key stakeholders, and leveraging their existing infrastructures/resources for maximum effectiveness. What began as the vision of a few state leadership members to institute a statewide standardized process of implementing evidence-based practices in autism throughout the state, has evolved into a a collaborative effort by key agencies mandated to provide services for individuals with autism.Back to Session: Poster Symposium: Systems Change
