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.

"As a speech language pathology assistant, I have the privilege of working with incredible children with autism who are learning to find their voices in their own unique ways. Every day, I help children build communication skills that allow them to express their wants, needs, feelings, and ideas with greater confidence and independence. Your support directly impacts a child’s ability to connect with their family, succeed in school, and engage with the world around them."
