Valley Achievement Center is the only non-profit facility in Kern County that serves children with autism.

Valley Achievement Center was founded in 1998 by three mothers from Kern County who were desperate for very intensive and specialized intervention programs. These early intervention programs are highly recommended by experts in the field of autism. No such programs were available here, so we realized we were going to have to bring this method of instruction to Kern County. We started out with one student and, almost 10 years later, we now have two schools that serve over 80 children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs).

Today our non-profit, non-public school is recognized by the California State Department of Education as one of the very best schools serving children with autism.
