Welcome to the Autism Society of Southeastern Wisconsin — The state’s single largest Autism Affiliate organization serving our communities for almost 50 years. The life journey for persons neurodiverse can be complicated, challenging, confusing, uplifting and even triumphant. Our mission and passion is to improve the quality of life for each child, teen and adult on the Autism Spectrum — as well as their families — while teaming with caregivers and educators to enhance every individual’s unique needs, skills and goals. A better life starts here.

Obtaining a Diagnosis: The Process

When family members or care providers become concerned that a child isn’t following a typical neurodevelopmental course, obtaining a comprehensive and accurate medical diagnosis is key.

Newly Diagnosed: What’s Next

Having your child diagnosed or being diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder can be emotionally challenging to parents, siblings, yourself (if one diagnosed) and other family members. Breathe deeply. Be strong. Move forward.

Early Childhood Intervention

The earlier a child is diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder, the greater short- and long-term positive impact early intervention programs can achieve. How to get started.

Navigating the Educational System

Wisconsin regularly ranks among the top 10 states in the country in providing services and support to those with neurodevelopmental disabilities. Your child’s rights start with your understanding.
