Our Goals
- To continue our mission of outreach, welcoming new parents, individuals and organizations on as members of our Coalition, provide financial support to families who need it to gain access to medical treatments and therapies, and to promote future success of the programs, events, projects, and educational opportunities provided by our statewide community partners!
- To continue to raise the maximum level of awareness, funding, education and advocacy for more than 8500 individuals in Nevada who have AUTISM. It is our goal to elevate the hopes and expectations of Nevadans when it comes to Autism Spectrum Disorder.
