Thompson Foundation for Autism & Neurodevelopment

With your support, we can bring down the waitlist for more than 2,000 children waiting for a diagnostic evaluation and support more than 231,000 Missouri children who stand to benefit from the Thompson Center’s life-changing services and compassionate care.
