The Autism Society of Texas is a nonprofit organization that provides free services and supports for Autistic adults, children, and their loved ones across the lifespan throughout Texas. We rely on donations to fund our work, and due to the many requests we get to promote, share, and recruit study participants, where feasible, we are asking for a donation to cover staff time in reviewing and posting studies. If you would like your study to be listed in our "Featured Studies" section and named in our monthly study post on the main Autism Society of Texas Facebook page there is a $100 suggested donation.
*We can only accept studies that are Institutional Review Board (IRB) approved.*
