Hi, S.
I provide part time play therapy at a school in Austin called The Capitol School.
Their phone # is ###-###-####. It is a preschool for kids in preschool through third grade.
They specialize in children with language and learning differences.
Some of the kids have diagnoses all along the autism spectrum. Give them a call or look up their website. I think their summer program is full, but maybe next fall...
Good luck and welcome back to Austin!

I was going to post the link to the Austin Resources, but looks like it was already posted. :o) I too have a 3 year old with autism, and he does not have a summer program this year. On the list is also a list of summer camps, etc. A lot of them are for children over 5 which has been a big problem for us. I plan to just keep him as busy and structured as possible. I am going to do a schedule much like the one he is accustomed to at school and hope that works. If I find anything I'd be happy to email you to let you know. Feel free to contact me as well if you have any questions. :o) I'll post my info below. Best of luck

Hi S.,

My son attends Stepping Stone Day Care, his particular school has an autistic child that is in one of the pre-k class. So, of course they don't specialize in autistim, but they do accept them there.
Not sure if that is what you are looking for, but hope it helps!
