Burkhart Center Autism Resource Guide
Welcome to the Burkhart Center Autism Resource Guide. Our goal is to help you identify and
take advantage of the many outstanding services and activities available to you and your family
throughout Lubbock and the West Texas area. This guide contains contact information and links
to websites and resources. You can use them to find out about supports and opportunities in this
area, including: medical providers, specialists, social programming, community events, and
family support resources. You will find information about services for individuals of all ages
and across all life areas.
The guide is focused on information for individuals and families of individuals with an autism
spectrum disorder living in the Lubbock area, but many of these providers welcome a wide array
of customers, clients, and patients. We also list providers from throughout West Texas.
In addition to a list of local contacts and services, we have also included informational resources
and links at the back of the guide that provide an array of information about autism, evidence-
based practice in autism, navigating the special education process, and more.
This list constantly evolves, so check back often. Every organization and individual in the guide
welcomes people with autism, has agreed to be listed, and has been contacted by a member of
the Burkhart Center team. If you know of a provider or service who families should know about
(or you are a service provider), please let us know and we’ll be happy to reach out and add you
to this list.
Sincerely,
The Burkhart Center Team
