Mississippi Autism Driving Resources

One of those states with little noticeable driving schools with rehab programs. At least, there are two noticeable non-school programs that do exist. This is one of those states where you may have to try some regular driving schools to find the one for you. As always, comment below or message me if you have a resource for me to add. Thank you for using this resource and have a wonderful day! 


Driving Schools: 

Nothing as I saw.  

 

 

Non-Driving Schools: 

 
Mississippi State University: T.K. Martin Center 

This center from the state university specializes in evaluation and training of people with disabilities who want to drive. One of the OT and certified driver rehab specialists, Eric Knox is a member of the ADED. No word on pricing, so you would have to contact Eric to obtain that information. 

 

Driving Independence 

 
Owned by OT and driver rahab specialist Nikki Simmons, Driving Independence provides driver services for those with neurological disorders. Their services include both clinical and behind the wheel evaluation, driver training, and driver equipment tech training.  Location wise, they provide these services in the northern side of the state and even tackle nearby states like West Tennessee and East Arkansas.  

 

Initiatives: 

Disability identification Card 

Proof of disability and used to get certain services, program, and/or activities. Also can be added to one’s ID card.
