Autism Society of America - Central Virginia Chapter

We are celebrating over 25 years of non-profit services, advocacy and support to families and professionals involved with autism. We are the local chapter of the national Autism Society of America that was founded in 1965.

Over the last 35 years, the Society has developed into the leading source of information and referral on autism. Today over 20,000 national members are connected through a working network of over 200 chapters in nearly every state.

Our local chapter provides a monthly newsletter to over 600 professionals, families and interested individuals as well as monthly meetings, a lending library, support and educational information for families or anyone interested in autism spectrum disorder.
