| Statement of Purpose: | The Autism Society of Boulder County (ASBC) is a non-profit, all-volunteer organization that offers free services to 2,000 area families coping with the daily realities and stresses of autism. ASBC's Mission is to help individuals with autism spectrum disorders and their families develop a strong, united community by creating opportunities for people to connect, share experiences and build new relationships. We support continuing education among local service providers, schools and families, and are building programs for adolescent and adult populations to expand their opportunities. | ||
