The Autism Society NWPA has enabled our family, and so many others, to find COMMUNITY.  A community where “different is NOT less,” where there is not only autism awareness, but ACCEPTANCE, RESPECT and CELEBRATION! We are so grateful to be a part of the Autism Society NWPA family, and as we continue to grow, we hope that we can count on your support for our Bridge the Distance /VIRTUAL WALK for Autism so we can meet the growing needs of our diverse community!! Donate to our team and post a photo of you and your family walking in support of the Autism Society NWPA! Any contribution is greatly appreciated!! Thank you!!

What is the virtual Walk for Autism?  A “Virtual Walk” is a real walk, but on your terms: you select the location, what time you start, and who walks next to you (6’ apart)! We encourage you to wear your favorite vintage Autism Walk t-shirt or favorite autism tee and share a photo on social media. We would like you to share a picture, story, or video of your family/supports with your Autism Society NWPA Vintage Walk tees or favorite autism tees or make new ones as a family project!

Show us how you created “your” walk in support of the 19th Annual Walk for Autism virtually. Post to Bridge the Distance | 19th Annual Walk for Autism Facebook page and/or tag “Autism Society – Northwestern Pennsylvania” and #AutismNWPA
