Genesis Autism Resource Center

Mission Statement

The mission of the Genesis Autism Resource Center is to support families and individuals living with an Autism Spectrum Disorder diagnosis. We want to empower families to raise their children to be full members of their communities and become responsibly independent and effectively interdependent, so that they are valued as gifted people and protected from harm. We strive to provide information to families regarding all aspects of family life impacted by Autism diagnosis, such as education, therapies, and support groups in order to empower them to make informed choices. We are responsive to concerns and desires of the family members serviced by this center, respecting the dignity, knowledge and expertise of the families. We maintain contact with other agencies and organizations, recognizing their values as source of information. We enhance public awareness of the valuable roles persons with Autism assume in the society through the promotion of physical and social integration.
