Program Pricing
Our tiered pricing model provides flexibility for families while supporting ASCV’s mission. This approach allows participants to choose a registration fee that aligns with their budget, ensuring everyone has access to the same high-quality ASCV experience.
SUPPORTER
rate
-
The supporter rate covers most of the costs required to deliver the program.
-
By paying this rate, you’re ensuring this program remains sustainable for everyone in our community for the long term. Covering costs can also assist with emerging needs (i.e., providing more facilitators, which allows us to host more participants), opening up funds to support families in other critical areas.
STANDARD
rate
-
The standard rate covers a portion of the costs needed to maintain and deliver our high-quality programs.
REDUCED
rate
-
The reduced rate is in place for those in need of financial relief who would be unable to attend otherwise, to ensure no one is excluded due to cost.
-
This option is made possible through the generous contributions of our donors.
Program Scholarships
Scholarships are available for our 2025 ASCV programs! Learn more about our scholarships and apply below.

We focus on helping people obtain what they need in order to get to a place where equity is possible in all aspects of their lives. We embrace the diversity of the communities we serve by providing programs and resources that are developed to meet the needs of all, regardless of race, ethnicity, language, religion, age, ability, sexual orientation, gender, or socioeconomic status. As an inclusive organization, guided by evidence-based practices, we promote neurodiversity and understand that everyone thinks, learns, and interacts with the world in unique ways. We celebrate distinctive talents and acknowledge multiple perspectives within our autism community.
