Empower-Autism CIC is a not-for-profit social enterprise providing support across the UK and beyond.

Our aim is to empower parents and carers to understand themselves and their autistic child and live full and meaningful lives.

Empower-Autism has been developed by researchers at the University of Manchester and clinicians at Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust and evaluated in a large clinical trial. This showed that parents/carers really value the programme and experienced significant benefits that lasted over the course of a year.
