Each year, funds raised by the Race for Autism help to support autism programs and new initiatives in our community. Together, we have supported over 100 major initiatives, increasing the learning, social, training options for those with autism in San Diego. NFAR is dedicated to building a more inclusive San Diego, and partners with organizations that are helping to include those with autism in a positive and meaningful way.
For 2024, we are asking applicants to submit proposals that increase the educational, enrichment, vocational training or employment opportunities for autistic individuals in the San Diego area.
