Our Home
Autism Community Training Nashville Center
The Autism Community Training Nashville Center is located on a six-acre farm in the rolling hills of South Nashville. Our location is convenient to I-65 and I-24, and we are proximate to Brentwood and Antioch.
Upgrades
The center is a ranch-style home that has been specially upgraded and adapted to accommodate persons with disabilities. The property allows enough room for a wide variety of training programs.
Greer House Home of Autism Community Training
ACT is located in Greer House on the beautiful 140-acre BrightStone campus in Franklin, Tennessee. Once the home of the property’s original owner, Greer House now serves as the home base for our trainees—a welcoming space for learning, building independence, connecting with others, and preparing for meaningful participation in the community.
