✨ Meet Danielle Holbrook Compton, Autism Consultant with Region 16!
Drawing on her 14 years of experience working directly with students with developmental disabilities, Danielle partners with teachers, paraprofessionals, speech-language pathologists, and families to support evidence-based practices for autistic students. Whether she's helping educators strengthen instructional practices, implement augmentative and alternative communication (AAC), or recognize and build upon their students' strengths and potential, Danielle is passionate about empowering school teams to help every learner thrive.
When asked what she celebrates most, Danielle's answer is clear: the educators she serves every day.
"Their dedication to creating safe learning environments, where every student has meaningful access to learning & communication, while feeling a sense of genuine belonging, inspires me to continue learning and growing so I can give them my very best."
Outside of work, you'll almost always find Danielle with a good book in hand. An avid reader, she loves stories that spark meaningful conversations and is a proud member of her book club, The Bettys. She also enjoys spending time with her family, which includes her husband, sons, daughter-in-law & her two blue heelers.
Thank you, Danielle, for your passion, expertise, and unwavering commitment to supporting educators, families, and students across the Texas Panhandle. We're grateful to have you on the Region 16 Tiered Services team!
