The Autism Program assists and empowers individuals and families affected by Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and related disabilities through direct patient support, provider education, and community-based outreach. We strive to meet the needs of the community in Boston and its surrounding areas in a culturally competent manner by offering high quality and comprehensive care to all. The needs of low-income children and families affected by ASD are vast and variable and yet critical support like that which is provided by Autism Specialists is neither billable nor reimbursable through insurance companies.

The Autism Program thus relies on philanthropic support to maintain its functioning, continued growth, and success. Many of our patients struggle to make ends meet, especially during the holidays, but the COVID19 pandemic has caused further financial burden. Visit The Autism Programs patient & family wish list for a complete list of their needs.
