About Us

Welcome to Autism Communities, a  non-profit 501c3 organization founded in 2016 with a steadfast  commitment to fostering inclusivity throughout Long Island, NY. 

At  Autism Communities, we partner with local developers and community  stakeholders to offer affordable and creative housing solutions for  neurodiverse individuals residing on Long Island. Our residents are  empowered to live independently with the necessary support provided  through their self-directed budget. In addition, we also provide  innovative, inclusive social events and educational programs through our  Club AC. 

Our mission is centered on advocating for neurodiverse individuals as they embark on a journey towards  independence. By facilitating their transition into neighborhood  apartments along the south shore of Suffolk County, we witness firsthand the transformative impact of our work. Seeing our residents thrive in  their newfound independence fuels our dedication everyday.

As the organization continues to evolve,  we are expanding our reach to encompass individuals with both autism and  intellectual developmental disabilities. This strategic growth enables  us to provide innovative and sustainable housing solutions to a broader  population in need.

Driven by our unwavering commitment to  affordable and creative housing solutions, we are steadfast in our  pursuit of inclusivity for neurodiverse individuals across Long Island.  We believe in the power of passion and dedication, exemplified by our  board members, staff, residents, families, and partners within our community.

Together, we can pave the way toward a more inclusive and  accessible future for all.
