As we embark upon our 16th Annual Gala, we are reminded of the generous support from sponsors and donors who have embraced our mission of hope and made a difference in the lives of children, their families and our community. We appreciate your on-going support and look forward to welcoming new community partners for our 2025 Gala.
The Riley Center is a comprehensive center for children and young adults with autism
spectrum disorder that has been providing services since 2006 as one of the first
providers for autism in North Alabama. Since its inception, the Riley Center has been providing comprehensive
services to children and families based on evidence-based practices at or below cost. The Riley
Center’s outpatient services include behavioral therapy (ABA), occupational therapy,
speech therapy, and diagnostic services, while also providing an education environment
utilizing the principles of ABA therapy. The national autism prevalence rate is currently
at an epidemic level of 1 in every 36 children. What is more alarmingly is the growing prevalence in our community. Thus, the urgency for services like those
The Riley Center provides has only increased. Through your support, The Riley Center can not only continue to be at the
forefront of offering resources and services related to autism in Alabama, but also
expand our offerings to support an inclusive community.
