Micah's Walk for Autism is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit committed to individuals with autism spectrum disorder and intellectual, developmental, and cognitive disabilities — and to their families, caregivers, educators, and healthcare providers.
Since 2017, we've worked to raise understanding of autism through advocacy, community engagement, education, and direct support. Named for Micah, a young autistic artist whose creativity inspires everything we do. We believe that when a child can't learn the way we teach, we teach the way they learn.
Changing how communities understand and respond to autism.
Resources, referrals, and a hand to hold for caregivers.
Sharing knowledge with schools, providers, and the public.
Our Safe Stop Initiative protects people in real-world encounters.
Micah's original creature drawings became a coloring book families can enjoy together — color it your way. Every copy celebrates the creativity of an autistic artist and helps support our mission.
Color his creatures, finish his drawings, and create something amazing of your own. Perfect for young artists who love to color, create, and express themselves!
