The Walk
Around the World is a 5K fundraising walk to benefit
the
Autism Treatment Center of America. This nonprofit
teaching center is home of The Son-Rise
Program®, an innovative educational
method for children and adults with Autism and
related developmental disorders.
Since 1983, ATCA has shared Son-Rise
through intensive family programs, in-home outreaches,
professional courses and worldwide seminars,
working with over 22,000 families and individuals
around the globe.
Today, Son-Rise is needed
more than ever before.
1 in every 150
children born today will be diagnosed with Autism.
Join this worldwide
effort to make a difference!
We are currently re-designing our efforts and our website for our annual Walk Around the World. Please continue to visit our website for updates appearing in the very near future!
