United for Autism Inclusion is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting understanding, acceptance, and inclusion of individuals on the autism spectrum. We bring families, educators, professionals, and community members together to create a more supportive world where everyone is valued and belongs.

Community Welcome Event

Our Mission

Our mission is to unite advocates, families and community members to celebrate and include autistic individuals through an annual run/walk event that raises awareness and acceptance while supporting programs and resources that empower those impacted by autism.

Our Impact

With the support of our volunteers, donors, and community partners, United for Autism Inclusion hopes to create safe spaces for meaningful conversations, and raised funds to support inclusive programs. Our event and initiative moves us closer to a world where neurodiversity is understood, accepted, and celebrated.

Every step, every conversation, and every act of kindness helps make our community more inclusive. Thank you for being part of this journey.
