Our why
Our son Browning was diagnosed with Autism at age 3, and we have been learning and growing along the way the best we can, but at times it was challenging to ensure we were and even to this day are doing all the 'right things' with all the obstacles he has to deal with.
Now at age 11 he has come so far, and continues to grow, and we couldn't be more proud of him. But during this process we realized we needed to give back to our community, and we wanted to help raise awareness for other familes and people with autism to have more support and resources as they grow.

Thank you for your support!

ASAN Mission
The Autistic Self Advocacy Network (ASAN) seeks to advance the principles of the disability rights movement with regard to autism. ASAN believes that the goal of autism advocacy should be a world in which autistic people enjoy equal access, rights, and opportunities.
Who is ASAN?
ASAN is a non-profit organization run by and for autistic people. Their staff and volunteers are members of the autistic community who are dedicated to ensuring that the perspectives of autistic people are heard and respected in all areas of policy and society. We and they believe in the power of self-advocacy to drive meaningful change.
Their Work
Through policy advocacy, educational resources, and leadership training, ASAN works to empower autistic individuals to advocate for themselves. They ensure that "Nothing About Us, Without Us" is a reality in every conversation concerning disability policy, seeking a future where our community is fully integrated and supported.
