The Organisation:

AsIAm is Ireland's National Autism Charity based in Blackrock, Co. Dublin.

The organisation's purpose is to advocate for an inclusive society for autistic people that is accessible, accepted and affirming. AsIAm works to support the Autistic community and our families to fully engage in Irish life and build the capacity of society to facilitate true inclusion.
