Mission

AHP seeks to improve the lives of autistic individuals, people otherwise on the autism spectrum, and their families through providing financial assistance to purchase medical insurance for therapeutic services, specifically Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy. We also strive to help others understand autism-related needs in everyday life, and promote more than just autism awareness among communities. We strive to create a world of inclusion where ALL means ALL. ​ The Autism Hero Project is intentional about creating a WORLD of Inclusion because it is NOT enough to just be aware about autism. We want to activate and move you to be apart of the VILLAGE.
