Walk for Autism- Charleston is a 501(c)(3) agency that values the educational needs of children with autism.

Our mission is to develop and implement strategies which cultivate increasing community partnerships, while fostering financial support for the treatment and intervention of autism through behavioral and relational development programs.

Walk for Autism Charleston began in 2003 from Lowcountry area parents who saw the need to provide ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) and alternative therapy for autism support to families and youth.

Due to the expansive costs of treating autism, the financial burden on families has increased and a reason why Walk for Autism Charleston seeks to offset the costs of therapies to mitigate the expanse while increasing public awareness about the diagnosis.
