Autism in Your Religious Community

Our hope is that all families affected by autism may be welcomed in their house of worship, and to become active participants in their faith community. We have put together a list of resources that families and faith leaders may find helpful. In addition, there are some suggestions to create awareness and further celebrate autism in your religious community.
