Chipola Area Autism Resource Center, Inc.

Chipola Area Autism Resource  Center, Inc. CAARC is a local 501c3 tax-exempt non-profit charity founded to increase autism related educational/recreational resources in our rural community.

We are a not-for-profit autism resource center founded by parents and grandparents of children affected by Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). We began meeting as the Jackson County Autism Support Group in 2010. We soon realized that there were many more services needed in our rural community and began organizing Chipola Area Autism Resource Center, Inc. to begin to address some of these needs.
