Project Growth and Funding

CARES is growing, and we’re excited to welcome a team of autistic collaborators with diverse strengths, communication styles, passions, and lived experiences. Thanks to initial grant support through the Communication Development Center, we’re able to offer paid opportunities to collaborators as we continue building toward long-term sustainability. Our group meetings are underway, and we’re already working together on our first co-created deliverables. This is research in community, on our terms—and we’re just getting started.
