FEAT stands for Families for Effective Autism Treatment. FEAT of Western Kentucky was organized in the winter of 2006 by a small group of parents seeking guidance, support, encouragement and information to facilitate treatment for their child on the autism spectrum. FEAT originated in California in 1993 and has chapters operating in many states across the nation.

FEAT of Western Kentucky is a non-profit organization of parents and professionals dedicated to ensuring that all individuals with autism have the opportunity to reach their full potential through all forms of effective early intervention.
