#WhoDoYouRunFor?
Nearly everyone has been touched by autism. Since our debut in 2012, the Tyler Run for Autism has evolved into an inspirational, inclusive community event that celebrates the diversity and uniqueness of children and young adults with all types of differences. Come join us while we make memories, celebrate diversity, promote acceptance, support families, and raise money to help kids! All proceeds are donated to help families cover therapy and medical expenses.
