Supporting Autistic Student Success Initiative (SASSI)
St. Cloud State University
Background
The Supporting Autistic Student Success Initiative (SASSI) project aims to examine if St. Cloud State University (SCSU) can provide individualized and intensive support services through integration of existing student support services. This integration of services will lead to increased recruitment and retention of students with autism at SCSU. Programming will also support students, faculty, and staff across the SCSU campus, providing guidance on ways they can be successful allies to students with autism.
