ARI pioneers research, outreach & cooperative efforts with other organizations worldwide without sponsorships or funding from special-interest groups. We support individuals affected by autism through innovative, impactful research and education. The mission of the Autism Research Institute is to advance the health of autistic people through biomedical autism research and free autism education. Since 1967, the Autism Research Institute has worked to support inclusive autism research and education as drivers of an evolving, highly individualized standard of care. We are grounded in our core mission, to serve the autism community with a commitment to autism understanding, recognition of autism, autism services, and autistic empowerment; scientists who are actively investigating co- conditions and autism to find answers to complex questions; and clinicians who are working to provide the best care for autistic people. Our autism partnerships continue to include autistic people, families, carers, clinicians, and researchers worldwide.
