Autism Hero award to St. Mary’s
St. Mary’s Center for Children was recently presented with the “Autism Hero of the Year” Award by the Evansville Regional Autism Coalition (ERAC). The Center for Children is one of the ERAC’s coalition partners.
The Center for Children was founded in 2006 to meet the special needs of Tri-State children and their families. It is dedicated to meeting those needs, while treating young patients close to home.
The Center for Children offers an autism program, a feeding program, a team of experienced psychologists and the region’s only Pediatric Resource Center. The Center also features a pediatric sub-specialty clinic with nationally renowned pediatric sub-specialists from Indianapolis and Louisville. Sub-specialties provided include neurodevelopment and genetics, neurology, urology, pulmonary, gastroenterology and sleep medicine.
