​Join Friends of Autistic People

You are not alone. Your struggle is our struggle.

As a group, our lives have all been touched by autism. We are uniquely qualified to serve as emotional supports for each other.

Together, we can change the way autism affects our lives and the lives of our families. Together, we can have one voice. And together, we can make that voice heard.

The Time Is Now
Parents, don't wait until your autistic child is 17, 19, 21. Change in legislation occurs slowly.
