The Autism Scholarship Program (ASP)
Oct 7, 2009
The Autism Scholarship Program (ASP) gives the parents of children with autism who qualify for a scholarship the choice to send the child to a special education program other than the one operated by the school district of residence to receive the services outlined in the child's individualized education program (IEP). Section 3310.41 of the Revised Code establishes the Autism Scholarship Program and requires the Ohio Department of Education to adopt rules prescribing procedures to implement the program.
The Autism Scholarship Program for 2009-2010 begins July 1, 2009 and continues through June 30, 2010.
Please note that individuals/entities approved as registered private providers for the purpose of the Autism Scholarship Program may not provide all services required by a child’s IEP. Parents should ensure that all services included on their child’s IEP will be/are being provided by a registered private provider(s) approved to provide services under the Autism Scholarship Program.
