The US Autism Association has always been able to bring in the world’s top experts because we firmly believe that to understand autism, we must draw from the expertise of those who are diagnosed, whenever possible. For this reason, the US Autism Association relies heavily on its Advisory Board, a majority of whom are either parents of those diagnosed or diagnosed across the autism spectrum themselves.
