Mission Statement

The Global Autism Project partners with autism centers established by local individuals to address the lack of resources and extremely limited understanding of autism that plagues many under-served populations. Our community empowerment model supports systemic change by providing family and community education through workshops and hands-on training. We believe in embracing the talent and resources of the communities by furnishing them with tools that engender self-reliance, sustainable development, and continued innovation. Through this comprehensive, bottom-up approach, it is our vision to build a world in which all individuals affected by autism have access to effective services.

This event was very well run and it was obvious that all the participants enjoyed themselves. I got to paddle kayaks with the kids and the staff was very helpful. I would definitely go again!
