Kinney Center for Autism Education and Support

The Kinney Center for Autism Education and Support is Saint Joseph's University's community-facing autism hub in the Philadelphia area (Merion Station). Programming spans school-age youth (about 5 to 14), transitional supports for teens and young adults (15 to 21), college student services (18+), employment and adult services (21+), plus camps and recreation.

Kinney also trains schools and employers, runs research, and offers certificates and professional development through SJU. This is not the same as a commercial drop-in ABA clinic: expect university intake, scheduled programs, and services shaped by Kinney's education and training mission.

Use the Kinney contact page for tours, eligibility, and fees; insurance and funding depend on the specific program line you pursue.
