“I am honored to serve as chair of the Indiana Commission on Autism this interim,” Heaton said. “These committees give us a chance to dive into areas and topics that need further examining to see where we need to focus and put our energies. I look forward to leading this committee.”
Heaton previously served as a member of the Indiana Commission on Autism. This is his first term as chair.
