Mission
The mission of the Berrien RESA ASD Program is to provide a positive learning environment, enabling students to achieve and enhance self-confidence, self-esteem, independence, social acceptance, intellectual, and personal growth according to their Individualized Educational Program and Transitional Service Plan.

We believe every child can learn through the use of evidence-based strategies.
