Seeds to Success: Growing Opportunities for Autistic Adults

The Challenge

Too often, autistic adults face barriers that keep them from finding meaningful work — not because they lack talent or motivation, but because our communities don’t always recognize their unique strengths. Many simply want what we all do: a place to belong, to contribute, and to grow.

Our Action

At Commonwealth Autism, we’re planting the seeds of opportunity through:

Career Readiness & Employment (CR&E) – helping autistic adults identify their strengths, explore career paths, and gain hands-on experience.
Training & Education – equipping businesses and community partners to create inclusive, supportive workplaces.
Community Employment Partnerships – connecting employers who value neurodiversity with candidates ready to thrive.

Together, we’re not just preparing people for jobs — we’re building a community rooted in understanding, inclusion, and belonging.

The Impact

Your support helps nurture:

Meaningful Employment that aligns with individuals’ strengths
Inclusive Communities that value neurodiverse talent
Personal Growth & Belonging, both inside and outside the workplace
