About the Autism Walk

Alert Alert

The Taking Steps for Autism Walk & 5K scheduled for Saturday, April 19 has been rescheduled due to stormy weather and safety concerns. The rescheduled date is Saturday, June 21 at the Vanderburgh 4H.
If there are any questions, please email our executive director, Kelsey, at: [email protected]

Every year in April, our organization hosts our “Taking Steps for Autism Walk & 5K”.

This is our largest fundraising event, and we welcome corporate and personal sponsorships, as well as volunteer opportunities. Families across seven counties affected by autism come together to walk, run, and socialize in a relaxed, supportive environment.

We counted our steps, and in April 2024, we took over *one million steps* for autism awareness and acceptance in the Tri-State!

We welcome local vendors and food trucks at our walk – Contact us for more information.

2025 Taking Steps for Austims Walk & 5K is now open for registration!
