At least 1 in 88 children are diagnosed with autism and individuals with autism have the same average lifespan as those not on the autism spectrum. Over a lifetime, the social implications and economic costs are staggering and the challenges are daunting. Families cannot do it alone. State and federal funding is woefully inadequate.
Sustainable, scalable housing models, incentivized financial planning vehicles, lifelong educational opportunities and other answers are possible only when public, private-sector, and non-profit organizations work together.
Our friends and partners have direct, personal, experiences with what it means to be a parent, employer, friend, teacher, therapist, or other connection with someone on the Autism Spectrum. Madison House Autism Foundation is proud to partner with the following corporations and educational, research, non-profit organizations who are working to improve lives for adults with autism.
