Follow the journey of our student, Joanna, who started at RCS as non-verbal, and is now thriving with lots of friends, weekly job training, and always ready to chat with her family about her day at school.

Many students have similar stories to Joanna and ultimately are able to thrive from programs designed around their individual skillsets, needs, and goals. Learn more about our educational approach.

How does your donation help our students at RCS Learning Center?

Support our Programs

A pathway to independence and success: Our “Let’s Get to Work” vocational and our transitional programming are more than school initiatives. They’re a pathway to independence for students with autism. Your support allows them to develop skills necessary to gain more independence at school and as they prepare for their futures.

Student Wellness & Cafe

Empowering students with lifelong wellness skills: Did you know that children with autism have 400% higher odds of unmet healthcare needs compared to children without disabilities? Providing students at RCS with tools and education around physical wellness, healthy meal choices, and independent cooking skills, enables them to develop essential routines early in life to help with long-term health.

We’ve already done so much this year with your our community’s help.

We can do even more with your support!

In 2023 we partnered with Special Olympics Massachusetts and recently held our second annual Special Olympics event.

This past April for Autism Awareness Month we renovated our student café. This gave our students the opportunity to train in a mock restaurant environment to support their vocational training.
