As the name implies, ACTION FOR AUTISM is dedicated to helping children…and the families of children…affected by autism to assist them in the attainment of available resources and thereby improve their lives. Our organization was founded based on...

MISSION
ACTION FOR AUTISM recognizes that nearly 1 in every 91 children born today will be diagnosed with autism. We view our mission as one of continually striving to work with individuals, families, and organizations to see that anyone with autism should, to the extent possible, receive therapies, resources, and support to help them attain their highest potential.

FOUNDERS
The founding family of ACTION FOR AUTISM has been directly impacted by varying levels of autism and recognizes how early diagnosis and the appropriate care, support, and resources can make a substantial difference in the lives of those affected by autism.

HELPING FAMILIES
ACTION FOR AUTISM helps families attain the care, treatment, and educational support they may not otherwise be able to receive. Funds assist with cost of schooling, physical, occupational, and speech therapies; provide care and support for children and families; help parents learn how to better support and teach their child; and also help families attain other services specific to the needs of their child.
