Welcome
AACTION Mission
AACTION is a 501(c)3 humanitarian organization dedicated to developing worldwide awareness, support and acceptance of autism through education and training.
Vision
Our dedicated volunteer team of autism professionals provides free medical, educational, and diagnostic training to parents, professionals, and educators seeking information across the globe. All of our work is done on a volunteer basis. Our training teams take vacation time from their jobs to travel and conduct trainings which allows over 90% of donations to go directly towards our mission.
Our organization was founded in response to a global autism crisis. Misunderstanding and misinformation continue to have dramatic consequences for children with autism. In many cases, children with autism go undiagnosed and fail to receive proper medical and educational treatments. In places around the globe children with autism are punished for behavior over which they have no control. Parents are stigmatized by the disability of their child and hide their children from the public. Children with autism are socially isolated and have no way to make their voices heard. AACTION’s training and education will lead to better understanding and help people with autism realize their full hope for the future.
AACTION’s hope is that someday all individuals with autism across the globe will be accepted and lead independent, productive, and happy lives.
