The goal of the Ryan Woods Autism Foundation is to improve the quality of life for families affected by autism. We are dedicated to increasing the awareness of autism and the unique challenges of families who face it every day. Our commitment is to support these families by helping them find the resources they need through parent and sibling support groups in the fall/winter months; providing a 4-6 week summer program (7 years and counting) of educational/therapeutic and recreational opportunities; life skills with an accredited clinician and licensed ABA therapist to deal with anxiety, bullying techniques. We fund these initiatives by holding fundraisers; donations from sponsors; merchants; churches; financial institutions and Board Members/officers of our organization.
