Dr. Roper is also our Director of Auxiliary Services for Vista's Baron School Program for Exceptional Children (a part of the Vista School). __ Baron is a private, accredited therapeutic program for children ages 3 to adults 22 years of age. This program is designed for children impacted by autism as well as for those with severe emotional and behavioral challenges, learning disabilities and intellectual delays. #wednesdaywisdom #autsimawareness
