TAG Scholars Program
Community Builds Capacity in Arizona's Schools
Scholars Receive Specialized, Advanced Training in Neurodiversity-affirming Practices through Multi-faceted Community Mentorship
TAG Scholars will take advanced graduate coursework in autism, neurodiversity-affirming principles, augmentative / alternative communication, and literacy. These courses are designed to maximize experiential learning so you understand content deeply.
Through TAG's community partnerships with schools and libraries, TAG Scholars will learn to implement universally designed group interventions that are uniquely tailored to address the strengths and challenges of elementary aged neurodiverse children: including behavioral self-regulation, reading comprehension, social interaction and communication.
TAG Scholars will receive tailored mentorship at multiple levels and through multiple clinical and community experiences. Emphasis is placed on welcoming students to various communities of practice that will sustain their professional and career development after graduation.
