Include Autism is actively seeking dedicated professionals that are passionate about helping individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders reach their full potential, while promoting the successful integration of individuals of all abilities in their communities. Board and Committee members assist Include Autism with fundraising, special events, programs and policy. The function of the board is to protect the integrity of the organization's mission and monitor our long and short term financial health and stability.​

Include Autism is a not-for-profit, 501(c)3 organization dedicated to providing services that instill community-wide autism inclusion. Our focal program, Community Coaching (CC) program, takes Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and social skill training to a new level by uniquely taking therapy "on-the-go", into the community. Community Coaching provides natural, hands-on opportunities for our program participants to develop adaptive, functional skills needed to become included in their community. For individuals and families that require support in the home setting, Include Autism now offers an in-home ABA therapy option, Discovery Link. Our Autism Inclusion Training, Volunteer/Peer Pals, and Baseball Leagues offer the community opportunities to understand, accept, and include individuals diagnosed with an Autism Spectrum Disorder into their organizational communities.
