Jack's Place is a newly formed 501(3)c created by parents who have had first hand experience with the difficulty of accessing resources and information on Autism. Recognizing the importance of early diagnosis, daily care assistance and the eventual need for long term care, Jack's Place intends to provide families who are effected by Autism services for persons at any age with Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD) through a comprehensive menu of supportive, educational and referral services.

It will be a "one-stop shopping" facility for families to access either services or referrals to the wide range of needs autistic families have. Education and awareness in the community will also be a focus to integrate autistic persons and families into the community. Satellite offices will assist to integrate Autistic groups and the services they provide to better service and support families and individuals with ASD.

By bringing existing community supports together Jack's Place will create a community for persons and families affected by ASD and will use this strength to advocate for additional support on the local, state, and national level. This extended community will find it's home on Jack's Place's campus environment which will house the above services, other services deemed necessary as time evolves, and residential services which will include respite care and long term living. Collectively, Jack's Place will institute a community for individuals and their families that have been affected by ASD, and will help to change the general community by raising awareness, support and providing integration of ASD individuals to everyday life.
