I volunteer for Autism Speaks because:

..."autism is effecting all of us"

..."This is how I can make a difference"

..."I want to dance at my son's wedding"

Whether it's stuffing envelopes, identifying service providers, or chairing a walk, volunteers make the difference! 

The Community Leadership Committee plans and implements the Autism Speaks fundraising, advocacy, outreach and awareness activities in several regions of the state including the Walk Now for Autism! We are in need of committee members and chairs. Please contact your local office if you would like to get involved.

Office Help
We can often use help with mailings, filing, data entry, and making reminder phone calls to our registered and not yet registered walkers.  Call or email us to pick a time that works for your schedule. There are even some volunteer tasks you can do from home.
