FIND SUPPORT · GIVE BACK · GET INVOLVED

Good people.
Work worth knowing about.

Explore organizations supporting autistic and other neurodivergent people, people with mental-health conditions, and their families. Find a resource for yourself or a cause you want to support.

Start with what matters to you.

Different organizations focus on rights, peer connection, education, research or direct services. Look at whose voices shape the work and whether the mission matches your values. Autistic-led organizations belong alongside family and professional resources.

Support can mean time, advocacy, sharing an accessible resource or donating if it fits your budget. Memberships, donations and volunteer inquiries happen on the organizations' own sites.

Before joining, volunteering or giving

  • Use the official website and confirm the organization's identity.
  • Read current program requirements, costs, accessibility information and geographic coverage.
  • For a donation, review how the organization describes its work and publishes financial information. A listing here is not a financial rating.
  • For volunteering, ask about training, supervision, time expectations and the kind of access the role involves.

Prefer to help close to home?

Ask a local organization what it actually needs before buying gifts or arranging a collection. A requested item, an accessible activity or a clearly defined volunteer shift can be more useful than an unsolicited donation.
