In 2022, ARI awarded more than $450,000 in grants to fund innovative research that holds realistic promise in impacting the lives of autistic people. At ARI we understand what it means to be different because ARI has always been unique. We have learned a lot over the past 55 years. We continue to focus on education while supporting research on genetics, neurology, co-occurring medical conditions, nutrition, sensory processing, severe and challenging behaviors, and adult and senior issues. Connecting investigators, professionals, parents, and those on the spectrum worldwide is essential for effective advocacy. In order to provide parents and professionals with an independent, unbiased assessment of causal and treatment efficacy issues, ARI seeks no financial support from government agencies or drug manufacturers.
