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. This is why I as a mother am proud to join in to help and pitch in. I had so many obstacles and challenges trying to find any help with my daughter to get her diagnosis and she suffered for more than half of her childhood undiagnosed. Now that she knows about her ASD, I found autism speaks I've been able to find more information and resources for her.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!

My nephews and daughter have autism they are my favorite people in the world and I wouldn't change that for anything and looking at them I see all the beauty on the different parts of the spectrum. They are truly amazing kids.
