The International Center for Autism Research and Education -ICare4Autism

Founded in 2004, ICare4Autism is a 501 (c) 3 charitable organization driving powerful multidisciplinary collaborations among leading autism researchers worldwide. ICare4Autism continually works to develop science, therapy, education, autism awareness, employment opportunities, and workplace inclusion for people on the autism spectrum. Our mission is to be the catalyst that drives collaborations among similar institutions globally to discover the etiology of autism, search for biological and environmental causes and ultimately, work toward developing the best detection and treatment methods. We are involved in grassroots research projects, community outreach programs and autism awareness conferences for leading researchers and educators worldwide. To foster multidisciplinary cooperation and collaboration, ICare4Autism is heading several initiatives and pilot programs: We connect the most elite autism researchers through renowned conferences and workshops to discuss complex scientific issues and find innovative treatment services. ICare4Autism is at the forefront when it comes to developing educational practices to serve neurodiverse individuals and vulnerable populations. Our model school in New York City provides outstanding teaching programs and specialty care for autistic children. Teachers from around the world train at our model center for professional enrichment and certifications. Currently, under development, the ICare2Work app will serve as a linchpin to “connect the dots” between local, state, and national-level resources and strategies, providing critical information benefitting users on the spectrum and their families.
