Pingree Autism Center of Learning. This education center provides comprehensive treatment, teaching, and service for children with autism and their families. Valley Behavioral Health and The Carmen B. Pingree Autism Center of Learning work together to create behavioral and educational services for students by conducting and supporting research into the cause(s) of autism.
