Mid-Michigan Autism Association
Mid-Michigan Autism Association is made up of local people working to improve the quality of life for individuals and families living with developmental disability in Mid-Michigan. In 2008 MMAA was started by a small group of parents and professionals who wanted to understand best treatment options and local resources for our kids with autism. Early on we identified that the work we were doing applied to families living with developmental disabilities of all kinds. Thus the by line Autism Driven, not Autism Specific.
