Join our team “Kids with Autism Can” in walking to raise $ for Autism Speaks and SAARC at Tempe Town Lake, October 31, 2010 (see upcoming events).

KIDS WITH AUTISM CAN, an Arizona 501(c)(3) not for profit organization, strives to create a community of families with children on the Autistic Spectrum. As we grow, this site will become a place to share positive stories. Through donations and fundraising we will help promote independence by supporting initial evaluations to obtain diagnosis and eventually transitional services into adulthood independence.

Our son is now 13, but when he was younger, every book we read about Autism made us cry. The books told us what he might never be able to do. We were devastated; life would never be what we thought. They never told us about everything he would be able to do. They never gave us a glimpse of what would come – times of happiness and progress.
