The Autism Society of Washington is currently looking for board candidates and volunteers to help us grow our reach and strengthen our community. Volunteers and board members play a vital role in sustaining our programs, hosting spaces like Coffee Clubs and Discord, and ensuring Autistic voices are centered in everything we do.

The Autism Society of Washington's Board of Directors, committees, and volunteers are passionate, hard working, and celebrate the diversity of thoughts and experiences within our members. We are committed to encouraging Autistic leadership, listening to Autistic voices, representing the diverse population and areas that we serve, and maintaining safe, welcoming spaces for everyone. We are seeking to add members to our Board of Directors, expand our volunteer base, and invite community representatives from each area of our state. These are all volunteer opportunities. We especially encourage Autistic people to apply.

Our process is designed to be accessible. Everyone starts by filling out an application and completing a background check. The board reviews ALL applications and will invite some applicants to complete a short follow-up survey. We then hold a brief interview/meet and greet. Each candidate must pass a board vote and each volunteer will be vetted as we work with a vulnerable population.

If you’re interested in joining us, we’d love to hear from you. Together, we can continue building safe, affirming, and inclusive spaces for Autistic people across Washington.
