Global Autism Accreditation, with our CEO Molly Ola Pinney

Discover what’s possible when children have a safe place to learn.  In many places around the world where autism services and awareness are limited, center owners have to compete with other businesses who claim to provide certain therapies while, in reality, they’re not qualified. Oftentimes, legitimate autism centers must also deal with increasing turnover rates because they can’t properly compensate their certified clinicians for the high demands of their job.  Meanwhile, parents feel overwhelmed and confused as they try to distinguish quality services from those that can be ineffective at best, and harmful at worst — sometimes, unfortunately, making the wrong choice. After witnessing first-hand this hugely consequential problem over the last two decades, The Global Autism Project has come up with a solution.  Whether you’re a center owner, a professional looking for a job, or a family member of an autistic loved one, you’ll want to listen to this episode, where our CEO Molly Ola Pinney makes our most exciting announcement to date, the launch of Global Autism Accreditation! She also explains how this opportunity for centers to become accredited through the only internationally-focused accreditor will revolutionize autism services on a global scale.  In this conversation, among other things, we discuss: How over 20 years of working internationally has prepared us for this moment What defines a Global Autism Center of Distinction Why accreditation matters The path to accreditation and who should apply Do you own or manage an autism center committed to providing high-quality services?
