Ways to Join ASM
ASM has been a vital support to the Autism Community for over 30 years. Our organization was established in 1976 as the Michigan Society for Autistic Citizens; the membership voted to change the name to the Autism Society of Michigan in May, 1992.
ASM believes that:
- Persons with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) have unique skills, strengths, and capacities
- The best advocacy occurs with education, respect and the presumption of competence in all persons with ASD
- Individuals with ASD, their families and supporters must be offered quality programs and services such as our FOCUS workshops, annual Spring and Fall Conferences and our Michigan toll free 800 phone line.
The Autism Society of Michigan is a non-profit 503(c) organization that relies on funding from many sources, including your membership dues, in order to provide our statewide services and programs.
We look forward to your continued support; please renew your ASM membership so we can continue our mission to assure participation and self-determination in every aspect of life for each individual's with autism spectrum disorders.
Sincerely,
Kathy Johnson, President
