Burlington County Historical Society

The Burlington County Historical Society will better meet the needs of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder by developing and testing programs and exhibit components. Working with consultants and specialists, the museum will conduct audience research, recruit an advisory committee, and prototype, evaluate, and refine programs and exhibits in its Children's History Center for 4- to 12-year-olds. Museum staff will participate in workshops on best practices in autism education and engagement. The project team will create a handbook and curriculum guidelines to support the launch of final programs for the public.
