“My daughter and I get a lot of help from your events and programs and my daughter really appreciated meeting people and kids like her who have non verbal autism and she is not judged and she can be herself and I am happy I am not alone and have a support group.”
“The Autism Society has been incredibly helpful to our family. They helped connect my family to community resources. And I have participated in multiple educational events they held for families. During the holidays they gave families free passes to a holiday event in Old Tucson and my son had a blast thanks to them. Truthfully, they helped give our family beautiful memories and provided us information on Autism that assisted our family in the process of building a brighter future for our son.”
“Thanks for giving me a starting point with my son. It’s been a long journey with wrong diagnoses along the way. As parents 25-30 years ago there weren’t the resources needed nor the understanding of what people were going through with this affliction. It continues to be a journey and we appreciate folks like yourself that are there to support parents and individuals through this odyssey. Kudos.“
“Thanks for all your help.It’s been a rather difficult route trying to navigate all of this. It’s wonderful there’s an organization here in Arizona dedicated to helping those of us with these symptoms. I really appreciate your help and dedication.“
“Once you enter their doors, you instantly become part of a family that will always be there for you and most importantly your child. Thank you Autism Society of Southern Arizona for being a part of our family. We are so grateful for the opportunities you give to our daughter! “
Thank You to Our Sustaining and Community Partners
