Tucson Alliance for Autism Inc

Just imagine...

The specialist you have been waiting weeks to meet with informs you that your child has autism. Autism? What do you do? Where do you go? Who do you talk to next? 

You look at your helpless child and ask yourself countless questions while the reality of this mysterious disorder begins to sink in. Will he ever walk? Will he ever talk? Will he ever be ‘normal’? Will he ever be able to play sports, have friends, or be self sufficient? 

The diagnosis of autism can be extremely devastating. It is scary, mysterious and frustrating. It can be even more frustrating when at nearly every turn you hit road blocks and endless trails of red tape. All you want is to get your child the very best therapy, help and intervention possible.

Tucson families living with autism need a place in which they can be assured their family member is receiving the best possible opportunities in life; a place where they can comfortably network with other families and receive the emotional support they need; a place where they can learn of cutting edge therapies and interventions for their family member with autism; a place where they can educate themselves; a place where they can feel comfortable and welcome.

This is the Tucson Alliance for Autism.
