In the heart of South Carolina, a message of hope shines bright for families and individuals navigating the journey of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The partnership between the South Carolina Department of Disabilities and Special Needs (SC DDSN) and the Carolina Autism and Neurodevelopment (CAN) Research Center heralds a new era of support, understanding, and empowerment.





Imagine a place where families, educators, businesses, and nonprofits converge, their collective energy pulsating with the shared mission of enriching the lives of those with autism. That place is the Autism Connect Conference in Columbia, SC—an annual gathering that sparks innovation, fosters collaboration, and ignites passion.


At the forefront of this transformative event is the SC DDSN's Autism Division, a dedicated force committed to championing early intervention, diagnosis, treatment, and support services. Their vision? To cultivate an inclusive society where the unique abilities and potential of individuals with autism are not just recognized but celebrated.


But the journey doesn't end there. Enter the Carolina Autism and Neurodevelopment (CAN) Research Center, led by visionaries Jane Roberts and Jeff Twiss. This interdisciplinary initiative, nestled within the University of South Carolina, serves as a hub for groundbreaking research, education, and intervention strategies.
