The Organization for Autism Research (OAR) was created in December 2001 – the product of the shared vision and unique life experiences of OAR’s seven founders. Led by these parents and grandparents of autistic children and adults, OAR set out to use applied science to answer questions that autistic individuals, their parents, families, teachers, and caregivers confront daily.
No other autism organization has this singular focus.
About UsOAR is dedicated to improving the lives of everyone impacted by autism by supporting research that produces meaningful and practical results. We keep autistic individuals, families, educators, and professionals informed by offering free, evidence-based resources and information every day.
