Autism Speaks' Mission
At Autism
Speaks, our goal is to change the future
for all who struggle with autism spectrum disorders. We are dedicated
to funding global biomedical research into the causes, prevention,
treatments, and cure for autism; to raising public awareness about
autism and its effects on individuals, families, and society; and to
bringing hope to all who deal with the hardships of this disorder. We
are committed to raising the funds necessary to support these goals.
Autism Speaks
aims to bring the autism community
together as one strong voice to urge the government and private sector
to listen to our concerns and take action to address this urgent global
health crisis. It is our firm belief that, working together, we will
find the missing pieces of the puzzle.
