Welcome to the Tidewater Chapter of the Autism Society of America(TASA) web site.
We hope you find the information on this site useful.
Formed in 1981, the Tidewater (Virginia) Chapter of the Autism Society of America (TASA) is
a grassroots organization in the Tidewater area. TASA was established to help improve the lives
of all affected by autism and does this by increasing public awareness, advocating for appropriate
services for individuals across the lifespan, and providing the latest information on treatment,
education, research and advocacy. TASA is the local chapter of the oldest and largest autism-
specific member organization, The Autism Society of America.
TASA's mission of creating a world where persons within the autism spectrum disorder are
fully included, participating members of their communities, is implemented. We strive
to increase community awareness, provide education for professionals and parents, and maintain
supportive, informative networks comprised of parents, professionals, and community leaders.
