Advancing Autism Care Through WA INCLUDE

What is WA INCLUDE?

Statewide initiative
Focus on autism care improvement
Uses ECHO model (case-based learning)
Bridges providers + community

  • Participate in ECHO training sessions alongside medical and behavioral health providers

  • Bring rural, community-based perspective into statewide discussions

  • Support implementation of best practices locally through the Spectrum & Development Community Center

  • Help connect families to coordinated care pathways

Our Role

Featured Didactic Training Resource:
Family Readiness in Autism Care

Rural families often face delays in diagnosis, fragmented services, and limited access to trained providers. Through WA INCLUDE, LCAC is helping close these gaps by ensuring that national best practices reach local communities, quickly, equitably, and in ways that reflect real family needs.
