Autism Materials Distributor

Save to Favorites

Do you want to increase autism awareness, understanding, and acceptance in your community? This is the project for you! OAR seeks volunteers who are willing to go out in their community and distribute informational materials and resources about autism. Share them with neighbors, parent groups, first responders, schools, clinicians, and more.

Choose the OAR autism resources you wish to share with your community (examples include: A Guide to Safety, Curriculum in a Box, Kit for Kids, and Siblings guidebooks). These materials will be shipped to your home where they will be stored and maintained until distribution. Distribute resources to a variety of sites such as schools, youth programs, resource centers, autism parent support groups, police and fire departments, etc.

Ideal candidates are outgoing and comfortable working with people of diverse backgrounds.

PLEASE NOTE: We are currently encouraging Autism Materials Distributors to promote our resources online, through email and social media, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We are hoping to resume regular Autism Materials Distributor activities in the Spring, but for now we ask that our volunteers conduct outreach online.
