đ AUTISM CARES ACT: WHAT IT MEANS FOR YOU!
Big news for the autism community! Congress has allocated nearly $400 million for autism research and programs in Fiscal Year 2026 under the Autism CARES Act.

Expect to see enhanced research transparency and a broader focus on the entire autism spectrum, including co-occurring conditions.

The Act directs NIH to issue annual budget estimates, directly benefiting family-focused interventions!
