Tee Up for Autism
Join us for a day of golf at Rivercut Golf Course to raise funds for The Arc of the Ozarks Autism and Neurodevelopmental Center.
Autism prevalence has risen by 317% since 2000, with 1 in 31 eight-year-old children in the U. S. now diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
Your support provides increased access to care, increased support for families, and enhances therapy and diagnostic services.

What is Neurodevelopmental?
Neurodevelopment is a term referring to the brain's development of neurological pathways that influence performance or functioning (e.g., intellectual functioning, reading ability, social skills, memory, attention or focus skills). When you learn to do just about anything, you are improving neurodevelopment.
Examples of neurodevelopmental disorders in children include attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism, learning disabilities, intellectual disability, conduct disorders, cerebral palsy, and impairments in vision and hearing.

Over the next decade, over 40,000 children in Missouri will be identified as having autism.
