Going All Out For Autism is a not-for-profit organization established in June 2012. Going All Out For Autism is committed to supporting Vermont families and individuals living with Autism Spectrum Disorders as they grow and develop the skills necessary to lead safe, happy, and meaningful lives. We strive to create a fun, therapeutic and enriching social environment for individuals living with ASD. At Going All Our For Autism, we are committed to raising awareness and strive to provide crucial resources for families living with Autism.
Going All Out For Autism was founded by the mother of three vibrant,
young boys. Two are diagnosed with Autism and have significant communication
challenges. Like all devoted and caring parents, she wishes for a community of acceptance
and openness for all three of her children. As a Special Educator and parent of
children with diverse needs, she understands the challenges families experience
raising exceptional children.
While our society as a whole has grown to better accept individuals with exceptional needs, at Going All Out For Autism, we feel that there are always ways to improve. We aim to further increase Autism awareness so the community can better understand the unique needs of those diagnosed and accept all individuals for both their challenges and strengths. We strive to provide the intensive and diverse services and supports aimed at developing adaptive skills and fostering independence. We whole-heartedly believe that fostering the development of adaptive skills must begin at a young age and continue as they grow. It is in this manner that we prepare individuals to, one day, live as independently as their abilities allow.
