The Autism Science Foundation (ASF) recently launched a refreshed website. Focused on the autism journey, the site offers families support regardless of whether they are addressing a new diagnosis or looking for support as their child grows. In addition to supporting families, ASF also funds autism-related research and holds events to ensure that the latest research and understanding is shared.
