Rebecca Hansen, Ed.D.
Executive Director
After spending 16 years in higher education working to support high school and college students with ASD, Rebecca dedicated her career to providing individualized consultation services to families with ASD during times of transition. During her time working in Higher Education, she had the opportunity to establish transition support programs to high school students as they prepared for college. She understands the team based approach necessary to supporting college students as they work toward earning a degree. Rebecca studied employment preparedness needs for college students with ASD and helped to implement employment readiness programs. Since then, she launched back into the world of work by establishing and developing Reaching Spectrum Heights.
