Autism Community in Christ- Independence for Life
We are based in the State of New Jersey. NJ is "ahead of the curve" as far as services and supports for the adult autism population, and our population is VERY grateful. Even so, there are areas of development that can use a lot of improvement- we're constantly working on it and improving things!
Dating back to 2023, a group of parents got together to address voids in services for the autism population in Bergen County.
We started as "Welcome Home", but unexpected circumstances caused that fledgling group to disband.
in 2024 we morphed into ACC, encouraged by Living Hope Church in Ridgewood, NJ, and their inspiring guidance.
As our home base requirements changed, we morphed yet again into an internet-based service, but with programs at bricks-and-mortar locations
ACC-NJ is now an IRS-Certified 501c3 non-profit organization, and we have identified transportation as our highest priority.
