FEAT stands for Families for Effective Autism Treatment. FEAT of Louisville was organized in the summer of 1999 by a small group of parents seeking guidance, support, encouragement and information to facilitate treatment for their child on the autism spectrum. FEAT originated in California in 1993 and has chapters operating in many states across the nation.
FEAT of Louisville is a non-profit organization of parents and professionals dedicated to ensuring that all individuals with autism have the opportunity to reach their full potential through all forms of effective early intervention. To learn more, please visit our website.
In May of 2008, University of Louisville President James Ramsey announced the creation of the U of L Autism Center. Bridging the gaps between autism diagnosis, treatment, training and research already taking place in the Departments of Pediatrics and Psychiatry and the College of Education and Human Development, a state-of-the-art comprehensive, multidisciplinary Autism Center has emerged. This partnership will become Kentucky’s primary resource for state of the art assessment and treatment of autism, cutting edge research, training and support for parent of children with autism, and the focal point for education and training of professionals from a number of health care and educational disciplines.
