Did you know we have a page of research studies seeking participants on our website?
Some of these studies are a small time commitment while other studies may take place over a few months and include therapy, parent/caregiver training or coaching, or some other form of Autism support, therapy, or guidance. Some studies involve compensation or a chance to get a gift card! Check them out now!
This month, our highlight is a quote from an individual who received connections to support for her child through our Navigating Autism Program, “ You helped me so much, I can't talk about it without crying!." Read more about what we did this November here!
