CSAAC's IT Department has a win-win opportunity for the upcoming IT Professional. You give us several hours of your time volunteering for IT Projects / support and we will give you the experience to help build your resume! CSAAC operates 52 residential homes throughout Montgomery County and we need infrequent support to maintain the computers, Wi-Fi network and tablets.
Every so often a tablet or the computer may go down and we are in need of someone to go and troubleshoot / fix the problem. This is not all of the time and is on an on-call basis. This opportunity requires you to drive to the different locations that are in the county. If you are interested, please contact cpardini@csaac.org for more details.
The main thing we need now is for someone to go to some of our residential homes and check to see why our new timekeeping tablets are not connecting to the internet. You will need to logon in the admin module of the tablet, check configurations and possibly reset the tablet and reprogram the application we are using. The houses are in Montgomery Village, Gaithersburg, Rockville and Silver Spring. I can train you on what needs to be done and help you over the phone if needed.

Mission Statement
The mission of Community Services for Autistic Adults and Children is "to enable individuals with autism to achieve their highest potential and contribute as confident individuals to their community." CSAAC operates five programs which serve nearly 300 children and adults with autism across the lifespan.
Description
These services are described as follows:
ResidentialCSAAC operates 52 homes in Montgomery County, providing community living to children and adults with autism. Homes are staffed around the clock by counselors who teach independent living skills such as housekeeping, personal hygiene, shopping, money management, communication, telephone use, and leisure activities.
VocationalCSAAC's Supported Employment Program allows adults with autism to obtain training and work alongside non-disabled co-workers while under the supervision of CSAAC job coaches. Work sites include more than 40 private and public businesses, nonprofit organizations, and agencies. CSAAC assesses the interests and employment preferences of each individual and seeks paid employment compatible with his or her strengths.
EducationalCSAAC operates and manages the Community School of Maryland (CSM)--three nonpublic educational programs approved by the Maryland State Department of Education (MSDE). Our students are between 7 and 21 years old and attend community-based school programs at one of the three sites located in Rockville, Brookeville, and Silver Spring, MD.
Intensive Early InterventionApproved by the Maryland State Department of Education, CSAAC's Intensive Early Intervention (IEI) Program provides treatment through one-to-one positive behavioral intervention. Instructional technicians work with children between the ages of 24 months and 5 years old in the child's home environment.
Family SupportDeveloped in 2001 to provide family training, as well as intensive individual support and after-school programming, this service enables children with autism to remain in their own home and communities by teaching self-care, appropriate communication, social participation, recreation, and how to access community resources. Services may be provided in the home, or on site at the Brookeville campus of the Community School of Maryland.
CSAAC is one of the sole providers in the nation to offer full lifespan services for individuals touched by autism, and we meet the unique human services needs for hundreds of families in Maryland.
