Step Out to Improve Lives
Join us for our Run/Walk for Autism events! You can enter as an individual or create a team of friends, family members, and coworkers from all over the country! There will be awards for competitive 5K runners, top fundraising teams, and team spirit.
We need your support now more than ever! All of the money raised by our annual Run/Walk for Autism events stays in North Carolina to improve the lives of individuals with autism and support their families.
