About Us
The Autism Society of
America, Greater Philadelphia Chapter was established in 1977 by a dedicated
group of parents with a strong desire to band together and be a united voice to
represent individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders and spread awareness.
This has been continued throughout the years.
Presently, we are a 501(c)(3)
non-profit organization whose Board of Directors consists
entirely of volunteers, representative of parents, family members and
professionals supporting
those with ASD, serving the five county region of
SE Pennsylvania,
(Bucks,
Chester,
Delaware,
Montgomery and
Philadelphia counties).
ASA’s mission is to promote lifelong access and opportunities
for persons within the autism spectrum and their families, to be fully
included, participating members of their communities through advocacy, public
awareness, education and research related to autism.
