The Ellison Development Center for Autism Spectrum Disorder (EDC for ASD) is a pioneering nonprofit organization based in the Tulsa area, dedicated to advancing education, therapy, and whole-family support for individuals impacted by autism. Founded with a vision to fill the critical gap in affordable, accessible, and high-quality services, EDC for ASD provides a unique blend of early intervention, individualized education, and wraparound care for families navigating the autism spectrum.
Our center offers evidence-based programming including therapy, speech-language services, occupational therapy, and parent education, with a strong emphasis on community inclusion and long-term outcomes. Through strategic partnerships, parent empowerment, and culturally responsive care, EDC for ASD aims to transform the way families experience autism support—locally and statewide.
EDC for ASD exists not only to serve children but to build a more inclusive, informed, and empowered community.
