Guidance for families. Possibility for every future.
AAF provides parents of autistic children with education, support, research, and treatment guidance, helping them navigate the early stages after a diagnosis and support their child's path toward greater independence.
ORIGIN
Helping families find a starting point.
When a child is first diagnosed, families may not know what to do next. AAF works to prepare and guide parents through that beginning phase by connecting them with information, learning opportunities, and support.
The foundation’s team works toward helping autistic individuals strengthen their independence, while recognizing that every person and family has their own needs and path.
“Education, support, research, and treatment guidance—so families do not have to navigate autism alone.”
