Individuals with Autism have unique learning challenges, so selection of teaching materials is critical. STAGES Learning Materials was founded by a UCLA trained ABA Therapist in 1997, when Autism diagnoses began to first rise. Our top-selling Language Builder® Picture Cards were designed to specifically meet the learning needs of students with autism. Today, STAGES offers a full range of real photo products for autism education, and the Language Builder series is a staple in home and school programs across the world.
