We are Delaware’s largest provider of advocacy, support, and services for people on the spectrum and their families and caregivers. Autism Delaware has served the autism community in Delaware for 25 years. We grew from two grassroots organizations, the Autism Society of Delaware, formed in New Castle County in 1998, and the Lower Delaware Autism Foundation, formed in Sussex County in 2001. These organizations came together in 2010 to form a strong statewide organization to ensure that all people in Delaware who have autism spectrum disorder (ASD) thrive as accepted and included members of their communities.
