Learn More About Great Lakes Center for Autism Treatment and Research

The Great Lakes Center for Autism Treatment and Research (GLC) provides evidence-based, state-of-the-art applied behavior analysis services for children and adolescents with a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder. In our programs, caring professionals will help children achieve their personal best because we know the true measure of our success is the children’s success. GLC opened in 2012 and is a program of Residential Opportunities, Inc. (ROI), a leading non-profit mental health organization in Southwest Michigan.

As an active member of the Kalamazoo community since 1978, ROI has earned a stellar reputation for providing excellence and the highest level of care in group homes, supported living, affordable rental housing and payee services. With the addition of GLC, this exceptional level of care is now available for children with a diagnosis of autism and their families.
