Autism Foundation of America is working nationwide to expand access to diagnosis, therapy, caregiver support, and life-changing services while connecting children and families with trusted guidance and meaningful assistance.
Who We Are
A foundation built around people, not paperwork.
We believe autistic individuals and their families deserve more than a list of links. They deserve a reliable place to find information, support, assistance, community, and opportunities that can make a real difference.
Autism Foundation of America brings together individuals, families, educators, advocates, volunteers, professionals, community partners, and supporters who share a commitment to improving lives and creating stronger communities.

Support in Real Life
Meaningful support respects each person's needs, strengths, experiences, and goals while recognizing the important role families and caregivers may play.
Every individual deserves to feel understood, supported, and included.
Our Mission
AFA is building nationwide pathways to meaningful care, practical assistance, trusted resources, and stronger support for children, parents, caregivers, and families.
