Autism Today Directory Help Build the Bridge for Autism Support
We're raising funds to expand a life-changing resource: the Autism Today Directory — a trusted, easy-to-use tool that connects families with local therapists, support groups, and educators. When Autism Today Foundation's founder Karen’s son was diagnosed with autism in the early '90s, she sat crying in a Safeway parking lot—overwhelmed and alone. That moment sparked a vow: to help other families find support faster. Now, you can help raise $10,000 to:
- Upgrade the directory for faster, easier searches
- Launch outreach so more families and professionals know about it
- Vet listings to ensure accuracy and trust
- Cover hosting to
keep the platform accessible to all
Your donation will help families navigate autism with clarity and confidence. Let’s build the bridge—together.
