Autistic students who need in-home behavioral therapy will now receive it free of charge, according to the Nevada Department of Education. The decision follows the department's review of autism services at the Clark County School District. Autism is a developmental disorder characterized by social, communication and behavioral challenges.
The education department concluded that the district is in violation of state and federal law and that it must submit a plan to fix the problem within the next 30 days.
