Center for Autism & Related Disabilities

Daianna has been fantastic! Informative, professional, and kind. I could tell right away that she truly cares about helping people and making a difference. Thank you so much Daianna for all your help.

No call I'm homeless neurodivergent youth just turned 23 an there's no help for adults. All the attention is to kids as if the disability goes away. Tons of elderly have autism an are homeless. I don't have family support maybe create a space for people to volunteer for their job applications an there would be less money hungry people this should be free

You would think that an organization of this type would employ caring empathetic individuals. Sadly, it does not. The parent support group couldn’t be less supportive and the leader is nothing short of rude. The monthly Zoom meetings for the kids are stale, dry and robotic, the leader is cold and uncaring. Trying to get help or services is a farce, that is not their goal. I believe the organization exists simply to get funded. Lots of talk of fund raising and how wonderful they are but nothing to back it up…not much in the way of support for the family or the autistic person. The reviews speak for themselves. If the organization was worth anything at all, they would be flourishing with clients. Shameful shameful shameful.

This is not as good as other state autism centers. Took 2 months for her to email me a "list" of 2 providers that might or might not even take my insurance (why did they even bother asking for it on the form?), that I already found on my own on Google maps by typing "therapy tampa" and picking 2 offices near my address. They should have a database of autism specialists in the area ready to go. They are supposed to have built these professional connections in the community for us. Total waste of college funding. A disservice to autistic people in the Bay area.

I can not comment on them. It saddens me to see so many one star reviews. In South Florida at least in Broward County and West Palm Beaches- CARD rocks!!! They helped us through all the ages and stages.
