Our Purpose
Walk with Autism is a local organization with a clear purpose: to raise awareness and promote acceptance of autism throughout our community. Our mission is to invest in local businesses, schools, and facilities that provide vital services and support to individuals and families affected by autism spectrum disorder (ASD). We believe that although autism is a spectrum, access to care and support should never be spectrum-based. Every individual — regardless of where they fall on the spectrum — deserves access to the resources they need to thrive.
To kick off Autism Awareness Month, we’re thrilled to announce our Second Annual Walk with Autism on Saturday, April 11, 2026. This event is more than a fundraiser — it’s a movement for compassion, connection, and change.
This year, proceeds will benefit two vital partners: Root for Kids – A lifeline for families navigating a new diagnosis, offering early intervention, guidance, and support. Washington County School District Life Skills Programs – The next step in a child’s journey, starting as early as age 3, where access to specialized education can make all the difference.
​
Last year, your support allowed us to launch a grant program for Life Skills educators — but the need continues to grow. This is a great cause for a great community. Your support will directly impact local families, strengthen our schools, and fund critical resources and programs.100% of donations stay right here in Southern Utah — helping us build a more inclusive, supportive future for every child. Together, we can make a difference — one step at a time.
