Autism Society of Southeastern Wisconsin
Improving the Lives of All Affected by Autism
Autism is a journey. You are not alone.
The Autism Society exists to improve the lives of all affected by autism.
We do this by increasing public awareness about the day-to-day issues faced by people on the spectrum, advocating for appropriate services for individuals across the lifespan, and providing the latest information regarding treatment, education, research and advocacy.
We believe that each individual with autism is unique and they and their families should determine the best treatment based on individual needs. This guiding principal is expressed in the national Autism Society’s Options Policy.
The Autism Society of Southeastern Wisconsin received our chapter status from the national Autism Society in 1976. For over 30 years we have served as the primary Autism/Asperger Syndrome/PDD resource for Milwaukee, Waukesha, Racine, Kenosha, Dodge, Jefferson, Ozaukee, Walworth and Washington counties. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, and your donations are tax deductible.
