ABout mimi’s mission
HELPING DOWNRIVER AUTISTIC INDIVIDUALS & THEIR FAMILIES
Throughout each year, Mimi’s Mission runs programs geared at helping Downriver autistic individuals and their families. Our Autism Acceptance Group program is a parent-driven support group that offers socialization, meetings, dinner, demonstrations, and/or activities on the 2nd and 4th Mondays of each month (except holidays). The Autism Acceptance Group is a unique program that is open to Downriver autistic individuals and their families. In spring of 2022, we also launched Downriver Young Adults, a program similar to our Autism Acceptance Group, for autistic individuals between 17-30 years old.

Providing community and support for families is a big part of Mimi’s Mission
When a new parent first gets a diagnosis that their child has autism it can be overwhelming. Worry, stress, and feeling helpless are common feelings parents wrestle with. Downriver parents do not have many options for finding community and support. That’s where Mimi’s Mission steps in to fill the void! Take a look at what is now available

Experiences and Support
You can help out!
Our fundraisers support families in the Downriver community. But most importantly, these experiences and tools enhance the lives of these children to help them socialize, learn new skills, and just be kids!
