For Professionals & Families Alike
Attendees include clinicians, educators, administrators, researchers, direct support professionals, and families — all working toward a shared goal: improving outcomes and quality of life for people with profound autism.
From the very beginning, the Profound Autism Summit has brought researchers, physicians, clinicians, families, self-advocates, legislators, and policymakers together around one table. We like to think of it as a much-needed group hug for the profound autism community.
Learn MoreThe Profound Autism Summit was founded by Nashoba Learning Group in partnership with the Profound Autism Alliance in 2023.
We are thrilled that the Profound Autism Summit is truly a national movement. People with profound autism, and those who care for them, deserve to be seen, heard, and supported, no matter their age or zip code. Additionally, in 2026 attendees came from Canada, Australia, Denmark, Indonesia, North Cyprus, Panama, South Korea, and South Africa.
