Hi, and welcome! Just a question why are you moving from NC to NY? I have a child with Downs Syndrome and live on Long Island, I do not know about anything for Autism upstate except that I heard near Albany and Rochester there were great special education services. My cousin lives on long Island also, and has 2 children with Autism. She is in the Lindenhurst school district and says they are wonderful, with her children. I also heard that Longwood, Patchogue/Medford are excellent with the programs they provide for Autism. I hope this helps I know how you feel!
