Thank You, Lloyd Winnecke!
Autism Everyone is ecstatic to share the support from Lloyd Winnecke, President & CEO of E-REP, and former Mayor of Evansville as we changed our name from Autism Evansville to Autism Everyone.
“I am very proud of the great work of Autism Everyone. It’s so indicative of who we are as a region, that is recognizing the value of everyone. Their commitment to guiding families and ensuring that everyone has the tools necessary to thrive is profoundly meaningful to thousands who would otherwise be lost or isolated. We are a stronger community because of Autism Everyone.”
Lloyd Winnecke

Welcome to Autism Everyone
Autism Everyone is a nonprofit organization committed to serving families affected by autism in the tri-state region of Illinois, Southwest Indiana, and Kentucky.
Families may often feel lost, isolated, and don’t know what steps to take upon receiving a diagnosis. That’s where we come in. See our four autism-centered community programs below and visit the First Steps Upon Receiving An ASD Diagnosis tab to take the first steps to give your child the tools they need to thrive.
Our Mission Statement
Forever improving the lives of individuals and families affected by autism spectrum disorder through partnerships for support, treatments, and care.
According to the CDC, 1 in 31 individuals are diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
Autism Everyone has a passion for those affected individuals and their families. Our executive director, board of directors, and other volunteers oversee and administer all programs. Through partnerships with service providers, schools, and the local community, we carry out our mission.
We offer a supportive, recreational environment for individuals and families.
Autism Everyone events bring individuals and families who have autism spectrum disorder, their siblings, and parents/caregivers together in a supportive recreational environment.

4.4.26. Commitment level at Autism Everyone: Passing out Easter eggs in a downpour. It’s part of the job description 🫶🏻😉
What a fun Saturday morning for our Sensory Friendly Easter Egg Hunt!
Thank you so much to our friends at Evansville Fire Department, Feller Express, AE Executive Assistant Missy, AE board member Mindy, and our volunteers for helping us pivot at the last minute due to the downpour! 🌧️☔️
A heartfelt thank you to our new friend, Joe, who set out cones in the pouring rain with our executive director, Kelsey, ahead of time, to block off entrances/exits for safety!
We enjoyed seeing all of you! Loved the smiles and so many happy families. Thank you for joining us! ☺️
