Autism Society of Southeastern Wisconsin, Inc.

What is the Autism Society of Southeastern Wisconsin about? How did we start? What’s our mission? What are some of the many ways we serve our local autism community? Board Member Alan Forbes put together this video of the Board and staff talking about the Autism Society and why we’re committed to the Southeastern Wisconsin autism community.

It also features video and pictures of the driving force behind our commitment: our cherished children.

We are the Autism Society of Southeastern Wisconsin from Alan Forbes on Vimeo.
