About Hearts for Autism
The Hearts for Autism Fund is a non-profit organization founded to provide children an opportunity to attend a camp specializing in Autism.
Today, Hearts for Autism funds the New Amigos camp for children with Autism Spectrum Disorders along with additional camps targeting language and education services. Hearts for Autism has partnered with New Mexico State University, Dona Ana Branch Community College, Las Cruces Public Schools and numerous civic organizations to deliver activities for children within the Autism Spectrum Disorder. In addition, Hearts for Autism has branched out to assist the service providers within the communities we serve to provide continuing education and community education to better serve those affected by the disorder.
Hearts for Autism has been able to expand its mission and reach more families and service providers affected by the disorder in the surrounding communities through the generous support of individuals, corporate sponsorship, and annual fundraisers.
You are the key to insuring Hearts for Autism has successful programs.
