About the Scott Center

About The Scott Center

The Scott Center for Autism Treatment at Florida Tech, a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit healthcare clinic, was founded in 2009 through the vision and support of Ed and Cheryl Scott and former U.S. Senator Dave Weldon. Thanks to the generous donations and sponsorships received over the years, our clinic has become an integral part of Florida Tech’s graduate program in Behavior Analysis, focusing on training, research, and treatment in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA).

Meaningful contributions can be provided through endowment, WISH Scholarships, and event sponsorships. Now headed into its 17th year, An Evening of Hope, The Scott Center's signature fundraiser, has become a highly anticipated community event, with each year showcasing a different location. Sponsorships for this event are available, ranging from $500 to $15,000.

We are dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and related disabilities in Central Florida. The funds raised directly benefit families in need, providing assistance with evaluations, ABA, occupational and speech therapies, tutoring, educational needs, sensory aids and tools, autism awareness vehicles, guidance, and social activities for families affected by autism.
