Awtism Jokes was founded by Steve Cohen.

Steve Cohen is a stand up comedian known for his charming nature and dry wit. After several autistic people told him he was autistic last year he decided to get tested to prove them wrong. It turns out they were correct. Since then he's gone on a journey of discovery using his sense of humor and experiences to make jokes that have gone viral on instagram and reddit. He has been a finalist at Manhattan Comedy Fest, Jersey City Comedy Fest, and Comedy Mob Fest and performed at club's across the country.

The New York City Autism Community Group, www.nycautismcommunity.org, (NYC Autism Community closed group on Facebook) and the Autism Innovation Community Foundation www.autismcommunityfourndation.org (AICN) were both founded by Richard and Maggie Schreiber, parents of an autistic now soon to be college student.

Their mission is to engage parents with more holistic, innovative and tech-oriented autism supports and to host events to bring those solutions to NYC area parents and caregivers and children and young adults with autism.

About Mission: Kid Success: Founded in 2019 by a mother inspired by the transformative effects of therapy on her children with developmental difficulties, Mission: Kid Success addresses the financial barriers many families face as numerous beneficial therapies are not covered by insurance and can be prohibitively expensive. To date, MKS has awarded over $100,000 in grants to assist children diagnosed with autism and related conditions, enabling access to essential therapies and services that would otherwise be beyond their family’s financial reach.

Expected comedians to appear are Ben Rosenfeld (https://www.tiktok.com/@bigbencomedy), Michelle Lonin https://michelleslonim.net/about/
