Autism Resources in Arlington & Northern Virginia

Arlington sits at the heart of Northern Virginia — the densely populated, high-resource DC suburbs that include Fairfax, Alexandria, Falls Church, and Loudoun and Prince William counties. Families here have an unusual advantage: access both to Virginia's own services and to the major children's hospital across the river, Children's National in Washington, DC. This guide walks through what's available to Arlington and Northern Virginia families: diagnosis, therapy, schools, community, and how Virginia's funding programs work.
