“Advancing Autism Now exists to bring out the full potential of individuals on the spectrum through education and research.“

“Our daughter, Melody, is born and appears healthy and happy.”
“Melody hits all her milestones early.”
“Melody goes to preschool and the owner notices that she is behind on her speech. She is diagnosed with speech delay and we begin therapy.”
“Melody regresses and goes completely non-verbal for 4 weeks after we move to a new home. We strongly suspect she is autistic at the time.”
“Melody is officially diagnosed as severely autistic and her school creates an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) for her. She attends a special class for autistic kids. COVID hits.”
“After homeschooling for almost a year using techniques from the Son-Rise program, Melody talks a lot. We also discover MeRT while searching for cures for autism. Melody gets amazing results.”
“Melody finishes a total of 16 weeks of MeRT treatment. She is functioning at a much high level and is like another child. Advancing Autism Now is founded to help others.”
“Advancing Autism Now continues to grow and expand. Our target audience is now worldwide after seeing many families with autistic kids from around the world.”

Protecting the civil rights of ASD individuals

Individuals with autism continue to suffer from discrimination, bullying, harassment, and exclusion from others. Understanding, compassion, outreach, nurturing, and inclusion are the keys to unlocking the full potential of these talented but widely misunderstood individuals.
