MAC educates the public that all minds are equal and worthy of belonging. We partner with community businesses and organizations to promote acceptance for different but equal minds.
Support Families
We recognize whole family systems need support and to feel connected. MAC offers resources and community events to build a sense of community for the families of autistic adults.


How We Serve Our Members
MAC provides educational, fun, and safe opportunities for autistic adults to learn and grow.
MAC connects individuals with ASD to their communities through social and experiential learning experiences to build healthy relationships and transition towards independence for work and life. We continuously seek business and individual partnerships to offer new valuable experiences and support services such as career and domestic skills training, communication skills development, relationship building, and work experiences.
Our partnerships encourage exploration and growth for our members supported by the larger communities in which they live and work.



Why Our Work Matters
When autistic adults have access to more, they can do more.
While there over 5 million autistic adults in the United States, only 1-7% of all funding throughout the US for autism causes is allocated to the needs of adults. Autism is a diagnosis that affects individuals for life, and support programs need to extend well beyond school-age to give adults with autism the opportunities to grow their independence, build empowering personal and professional relationships, and realize hopeful futures.
