NextGen Supports for Independence, Inc

Mission

NextGen empowers families and autistic young adults to find, train, and retain caregivers who value each person’s communication style, autonomy, and strengths. We connect individuals with the tools, networks, and housing pathways needed to build fulfilling, self-directed lives.

Vision

We envision a future where every autistic adult has access to competent, respectful caregivers; where non-speakers can fully exercise communication choice with appropriate education; and where supported and independent living options are available across the lifespan—providing continuity of care as family caregivers age.
