urban autism solutions

Thank you for your  support in 2023! 

Your gift enables us to purchase new equipment, expand our outreach efforts, and provide essential services that help meet a vital need in our communities.

If you would still like to give, your donation will have double the impact thanks to a generous grant from the Coleman Foundation that will match it dollar for dollar up to $25,000 until the end of the year.

The Young Adults UAS Serves

Many of the young adults served through UAS are marginalized by low socioeconomic status and racial discrimination.

 

Matt Wendell, a teacher from Al Raby High School and collaborator with UAS, shares what life is like for these students who not only live with the challenges of autism and other intellectual and developmental differences, but the realities of the neighborhood they grow up in.
