Buffalo, N.Y. (WBEN) - The Summit Center, which helps more than 1,200 children and adults with autism and developmental disabilities every year, is planning a major $12.75 million expansion. The non-profit just recently bought a large building at 2420 Sweet Home Road in Amherst for $3.75 million. That property will soon be home to the Summit Academy Early Education Center. On top of that, the group is adding 27 new classrooms across its campuses.
Buffalo-area nonprofits and small business owners will be at downtown's Golisano Institute Tuesday from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. working with AI. Each participant will develop an AI prototype that will help fix a specific challenge in their industry.
