Cincinnati Center for Autism has a long-standing commitment to empowering individuals with autism to reach their fullest potential. This acquisition aligns with our mission to continually evolve and adapt to the evolving needs of our community.

We extend our sincere gratitude to the dedicated families we serve, tremendous staff, outside partners and supporters, and the Board of Directors. Their ongoing generosity and belief in our mission have been instrumental in reaching this milestone.

Our team is excited about the possibilities that this new facility offers and is eager to make a lasting impact on the lives of individuals with autism in the Cincinnati area.
