Join us to celebrate hope and togetherness during challenging times at Illuminating Autism: Seasons of Strength—the UW Autism Center’s signature annual event supporting autism services, research, and community connection.

This inspiring evening honors our shared resilience and the UW Autism Center’s mission to create a world where autistic individuals, parents, and caregivers have the resources to thrive. Funds raised will sustain innovative research, clinical services, and life-changing programs that make a difference every day.

Our keynote speaker, William Dussault, is a pioneering disability rights attorney whose work has shaped national policy and practice for more than five decades. Known as the originator of the Special Needs Trust and a driving force behind the first public education law for children with disabilities, Mr. Dussault continues to advocate for equity, dignity, and opportunity for all.

The evening will feature presentations, live and silent auctions, dinner, and an open bar. Elegant attire is encouraged as we come together to celebrate the many seasons of strength within our community. We look forward to seeing you there!
