Today, over 70 million children and adults are affected by autism. Each of them, have unique strengths, challenges and potential. Autism Speaks will be there for them. You and I can be too.

It's only through the dedicated support of people like us that Autism Speaks can continue their vital mission work. Each year, the Autism Speaks Autism Response Team makes direct contact with tens of thousands of individuals looking for advice or guidance and more than one million people access their free nationwide autism services and resources. They continue to partner and support research to improve the lives of people with autism by investing in science that will allow more personalized treatments and therapies. You can find out even more about where your fundraising dollars go at autismspeaks.org/our-work.

Please join me by donating to help me reach my fundraising goal. Together, we have the power to enhance the lives of people with autism and make a meaningful difference. Thanks so much for your support!

Now my boys wouldn't be where they are today without the funding and help from organizations like Autism Speaks and Spark studies! So much data is being produced about Autism Spectrum Disorder and ADHD and your donations are the secret ingredient to getting early diagnosis and intervention! My boys are 12 and 7 and flourishing in school and social skills! Im so grateful for the people and village i have personally and the doctors, therapists and programs available for them!
