Our Mission
FACE is a 501-c3 organization. FACE’s mission is to promote autism awareness and support children and families affected by Autism Spectrum Disorders. We are committed to helping fund initiatives that provide early intervention services and therapies, family support, education, advocacy and opportunities with the purpose of improving the quality of life for these individuals and families.
About Us
The Foundation for Autism Collaboration and Empowerment (F.A.C.E.) was established in 2016 by John and Savina Liberto, in honor of their son, Tommy, who was diagnosed with autism at the age of two.
Donate Now
With out the support of our donors, F.A.C.E. would not be able help families. Every dollar donated significantly impacts the lives of children on the autism spectrum.
Autism Info
