What is BRCASD?
The Binghamton Regional Center for Autism Spectrum Disorders (Binghamton RCASD) is a university affiliated resource center that brings research and practice together in community settings. Binghamton RCASD provides evidence-based training and support to families and professionals, and through ongoing research, contributes knowledge to the field of autism spectrum disorders. The area that falls under our region includes 8 counties: Chemung, Tompkins, Tioga, Cortland, Broome, Chenango, Otsego, and Delaware.
What can BRCASD do for me?
The BRCASD is here to provide support and opportunities to learn more about autism and how best to support autistic children and adolescents. We can schedule workshops and trainings on a variety of topics and are happy to partner with other organizations and agencies for that purpose. Please visit our companion website with our latest events and resources: brcasd.binghamton.edu
Though we aim to disseminate important information and trainings to the residents and providers in our regional counties, we are not an advocacy organization and do not have resources to provide direct care or therapetuic services, such as diagnostic assessments, therapy, or ongoing consultation services.

Regional Advisory Group
The Binghamton Regional Center for Autism Spectrum Disorders Regional Advisory Group was established in 2017. This group is composed of stakeholders at various levels of service delivery who help identify key needs in the counties we serve, as well as ideas for how BRCASD can help address those needs through information dissemination and training. Headed by the BRCASD Director and Assistant Director, the Regional Advisory Group meets once or twice each year to determine the direction of the center’s efforts.
