Dissemination

The need for autism services remains far greater than the level of service any one program can provide. Part of PCDI's mission is to disseminate the intervention programs, research, and experience with other professionals around the globe.

PCDI has replicated key accountability and program-wide systems based upon the work of McClannahan and Krantz (1993) for decades, helping develop other premier autism programs nationally and internationally.

Program directors at PCDI dissemination sites have conducted a year-long training residency at PCDI. During this time, intensive training is provided related to clinical programming, program administration, and staff training.

These sites must acquire sufficient funding sources, work under the mentorship of seasoned PCDI professionals and make modifications and adjustments to the program as needed while maintaining the model (Townsend et al., 2019).
