Our goal is to promote awareness and to support community programs

After 18 years of service, support, and shared purpose, we have made the difficult and heartfelt decision to close this chapter of Autism Awareness – NEPA.

For nearly two decades, we have been honored to walk alongside thousands of families, provide meaningful resources, and help strengthen more than one hundred programs throughout Northeastern Pennsylvania. None of this would have been possible without the unwavering dedication of our volunteers and the generosity of our sponsors. Your belief in our mission made a lasting impact—one that will continue to echo throughout the communities we’ve served.

As we conclude our journey, we remain committed to finishing our work with intention. Our final act of service will be the distribution of the Dolphus Teart Grants, which will be awarded in late April.

Thank you for trusting us. Thank you for supporting us. And thank you for standing with us for the past 18 years. While this chapter is closing, the impact of this work will live on through the families, programs, and partners who continue to champion understanding, inclusion, and hope.

With sincere gratitude,
Autism Awareness – NEPA
