The following is an excerpt from a press release about a new Doctoral program at Caldwell College in New Jersey.

Caldwell College will launch the first Ph.D. program in New Jersey for Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), a well developed scientific discipline that is best known for its proven ability to greatly help children with autism spectrum disorder. Caldwell’s program was recently approved by the New Jersey Commission on Higher Education and Middle States.

New Jersey has one of the higher autism prevalence rates and so it is fitting (in my opinion) that Caldwell College is expanding its educational opportunities for autism professionals.

I have just updated the New Jersey section of the Autism Schools database to include the Stepping Stone School in Bloomsbury. The school caters to children with emotional disorders, learning disabilities, Asperger’s Syndrome, and ADHD. The school was previously known as the Warren Glen School and was originally founded in 1978.
