Has anyone used AHEADD for an Asperger's student?

This is an individualized support program for Asperger's students in college. Here's the website. Has anyone used it? Thanks for any info!

Never heard of it but I went on their website and it looks interesting. There was another program I looked into, where they lived in special apartments, etc. but it cost $35,000 per year!
