Description
The ASNV Walk and Family Funfest is more than a walk—it’s a celebration of connection, inclusion, and possibility.
Each year, families, self-advocates, educators, and community partners come together for a joyful day designed with everyone in mind. From a vibrant resource fair and live music to sensory-friendly activities and family fun, this event creates space to learn, connect, and feel supported—exactly as you are.
For more than 21 years, the ASNV Walk and Family Funfest has raised over $500,000, with every dollar reinvested directly into the community through education, advocacy, and meaningful support for autistic individuals and their families. Hundreds of families across Northern Virginia have benefited from this collective generosity—and the ripple effect continues to grow.
Whether you walk, donate, volunteer, or simply show up, you are helping build a more informed, accepting, and supportive community.
