Shannon, parent

“We have been going for over 3 years and absolutely love this clinic! The girls that work up front are always smiling, friendly, and helpful with any needs you may have. The therapists are all so caring, friendly, knowledgeable, and will always answers questions. Their executive staff is just as friendly and caring. My daughter would hang out with them all day in their offices if she had the choice. My kids have been to their Summer camps as well and each year they have so much fun they never want to leave. My son has made so much progress with his therapy sessions and we can’t wait to watch him to continue to grow. We consider this whole group a part of our extended family and would recommend them in a heartbeat. We love Griffin Promise Autism Clinic!"

Marci, parent

"My son is a non-speaker with Autism and Apraxia.  I had heard about spelling to communicate through a podcast and was so glad to find practitioners here in Oklahoma.  We started coming here a little over a year ago.  Torrie and Stephanie are so unwavering in their commitment to making sure access to communication is available for individuals like my son.  Presuming competence is the key and they are the key-masters!  There is no doubt they believe in their clients and that is everything.  GPAC is such a safe environment and the staff is so open to supporting these guys!  Lori, the director, is just fabulous and helpful, always advocating for the clients.  Lori, Torrie, and Stephanie really have worked so hard and have created the best space for my son and others like him.  We need a 10 star category because that's they where they belong!"

Lisa, teacher

" Our educator class was beyond any autism training we have recieved before. We learned real tips and tricks for our classroom and how to better understand our students. I think all educators could benefit from this training"
