Tri-Cities Autism Coalition (TCAC) is made up of local nonprofit organizations, professionals, parents, and individuals seeking to expand the services and support necessary to ensure that people with autism have every opportunity to fulfill their potential.

Autism affects 1 in 36 children ages 3 to 18. Prevalence rates continue to rise, yet we do not see services and opportunities keeping pace with the needs.

A group of committed individuals, parents, professionals, and nonprofits, seeing the struggles of individuals affected by Autism and their families, has formed an alliance to support and educate our community on the available resources and opportunities.

Tri-Cities is a newly formed coalition of parents, professionals, and non-profits. Spectrum Studio’s is a non-profit committed to serving individuals with Autism and has graciously agreed to be the fiscal agent for this event. Allowing companies and donors to claim tax deductions and ensuring funds are secure and being collected in a designated account.

Tri-Cities Autism Coalition (TCAC) is committed to being a good steward of the dollars entrusted for this cause. The priorities of the committee are as follows:

• Ensure the “Our Autism Journey Were Better Together” is a quality event

• Ensure outreach, design, and communication generate community participation.

• Ensure all expenses are covered and savings are designated to support Our Autism Journey 2025

• Any funds that exceed the event's expenses will be held in a designated account to benefit our local communities' efforts to serve and support individuals and families affected by Autism.
