HUGS for Autism, Inc

HUGS for Autism, Inc The acronym, H.U.G.S., stands for Hope, Understanding, Guidance, and Social acceptance. H.U.G.S.
(9)

for Autism was founded by former educators who have experienced firsthand the social
challenges youth with an Autism Spectrum Disorder face every day. After spending several years
arranging and evaluating the ways in which Autistic students flourished when they were accepted and
nurtured by regular education students on a smaller level, we decided to begin working to create and
grow a more for

malized program that could be carried out in schools across the U.S. In the midst of this
decision, came a nationwide outcry against bullying amongst school-age children. After doing extensive
research, we discovered that there existed a tremendous disparity in the rates of bullying involving
children diagnosed with an ASD. Studies have shown that children with an ASD experienced bullying at
rates four times greater than children who are classified as general education. Our goal is to
ensure that the growing population of Autistic children is able to experience a journey through life filled
with H.U.G.S.
