Research is an investment.

Our 2025 Autism by the Numbers report found that one in nine autistic children aren’t getting the healthcare they need. Though disheartening, this fact comes as little surprise for folks in the autism community. The reality is: Our healthcare system wasn’t built for autistic people.

Only in the past 20 years have we begun to change that with help from caring people like you. In 2024 alone, research powered by donors helped refine diagnostics, gene therapies, and personalized care for autistic people. Breakthroughs like these are critical for improving care.

Unfortunately, deep funding cuts threaten to put the next breakthrough on hold. We need your help to save it. Start a monthly gift today and not only will it provide the reliable support needed to keep our research strong, but it’ll also be MATCHED for the first THREE MONTHS.

Together, we can build a better healthcare system for people with autism—one breakthrough at a time. Start your MATCHED monthly gift today. >>
