Autism Society Central Virginia is a small nonprofit organization serving the central Virginia region in the field of individual and family services. Based in Richmond, Virginia, it supports individuals on the autism spectrum and their families by acting as a local hub for education, advocacy, services, and support. Its mission emphasizes maximizing self-sufficiency, independence, and quality of life while promoting meaningful participation and self-determination across all ages and life stages. ASCV collaborates with community groups and institutions to broaden access to education, safety, and inclusive services. Recent developments include a 2024 partnership with Camp Hanover to support outdoor experiences, and a 2023 collaboration with CodeVA to expose autistic children and their families to computer science concepts. In November 2023, the organization received the Kevin and Avonte Program Grant from the Bureau of Justice Assistance to fund its autism-friendly first responder training program over three years.
