About St. Gerard House

St. Gerard House opened its doors in 2010 with a mission to help individuals with autism and their families experience more joy and meaningful life outcomes. The autism rate continues to rise steadily - now 1 in 36 children are on the spectrum. As demand for services outpaced capacity, SGH maintained its dedication to quality autism care and expanded programming to include opportunities for older children, teens, and young adults. SGH has experienced a 5-year growth rate averaging 33.5% annually and it is not slowing down - even during a pandemic. St. Gerard House is seen as a leader in the Autism field. SGH is the only non-profit, comprehensive Autism center in WNC offering a continuum of care from diagnosis through adulthood.

St. Gerard House uses Applied Behavior Analysis therapy (ABA) as the backbone of all our programming. ABA is the gold standard for autism treatment. By encountering learning strategies like reinforcement, prompting, and generalizing in systematic ways, individuals with ASD acquire skills and replace problem behaviors with more functional ones. SGH’s approach includes 1:1 client/therapist ratios, small group learning, assessments, parent training, year-round services, and an atmosphere of joy and acceptance. Children, teens, and young adults gain skills necessary to increase self-sufficiency and participate in the community in a meaningful way, interactions with typically-developing children, and a family-centered approach. We are dedicated to providing the necessary resources and services for a family to thrive with a diagnosis of autism.
