Georgia Autism Driving Resources

While no Florida in terms of scope of resources, Georgia does have a good amount of driver rehab programs. Barber’s driving school looks respectable with their work, so it is better than nearby states other than Florida. Comment below or message me if I missed any schools. Thank you for using this resource and have a wonderful day!
